Medium ruby with medium garnet , ruby rim . Quite high toned spicy , sweet red fruit, red plum and cherry , vanilla , with a herbal , earthy touch. On the palate this is quite strict and tannic , lots of structure with decent acidity and red plum , darker cherry , spiced currants , hedgerow fruits, blackberry . Slightly saline , stony finish . Good length and well balanced alcohol . Very young , needs time to integrate. Better in 5-8 years and will last well for a further 10 or so years . — 18 days ago

Spice, tobacco, blackberry, and perfume. Spicy, flavorful, and fun. — 11 days ago
High quality regardless of the vintage. I love the balsamic aftertaste in this one. And if this vintage really still has some time ahead of it - then I hope that the balsamic notes will strengthen in it. — 18 days ago
"Odedi"
Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.
Full-bodied with medium acidity.
Very dry on the palate with nice complexity and a nice mouthfeel.
Showing black fruits, cedar, licorice, chocolates, dark coffee, pencil lead, earth and peppercorn.
This is a delicious Tempranillo from Ribera Del Duero in Spain. Elegant and rich. Fruit forward and nicely balanced.
Starting to drink beautifully now, and needs a couple of hours to open up properly, so be patient.

This 5 year old Tempranillo is already complex, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.
Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.
100% Tempranillo grapes, from 40 year old vines, were aged for 14 months in oak barrels and concrete vats.
