"As with all the other wines, the 2016 Gran Enemigo Agrelo Single Vineyard showed more freshness than its sibling from 2015, and the exotic note of Indian bazaar—a recurring note in this bottling—was subtler and in the background, leaving room for more nuance and filigree but with that curry-like twist in there. The palate shows more tension and feels more fluid, with a nice core of cherry-pit freshness. This is surprisingly good, because the year was not easy in the zone, and this clearly transcends the conditions of the harvest. 2016 was a shorter crop, and there are 5,500 bottles of this. It was bottled at the end of 2018."
