Light smoke and balanced sweetness. Exotic spices, black pepper but very subtle . — 6 years ago
With its suave blend of rich dark fruit and energetic floral and spice qualities, this juicy Spanish red will pair well with a range of foods, especially grilled meats. It also drinks wonderfully by itself. Supple tannins and subtle grip keep the exuberant fruit in check. $15.00 (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, October 2018) — 7 years ago

Loved this wine. Dry. Flavorful. — 3 years ago
On first opening, bouquet of black cherry and blackberries, Big Red cinnamon gum, bell pepper, and smoky bowling alley; palate of black cherry and plum, char, and black tea with a medium-short finish. On the second day the candy and bell pepper smells taper, bowling alley becomes more of a whiff of pipe smoke, blackberry bramble emerges with spent firecrackers; on the palate the black pepper spice has some herbs de provence, black tea tannins are rounder and the cherry flavor more tart, a fuller body on the finish with notes of char, meat fats, and pepperoni spices. Was gonna go with 89 but it’s impressive once you decant for a day. — 3 years ago
Nose of black cherry, pomegranate, black pepper, iron, licorice, and something that reminds me of animals...in a good way. Very Bandol like. Palate is rich and structured with dark fruit, spice, good acidity, and somewhat bitter, course tannins. Alcohol is well hidden.
Rustic and wild, but still rich and complex. I really dig this style, but I understand why not everyone would be on board. — 3 years ago
