Sipping Fine Wine

9.5

A nice wine!! A blend of mostly Tinta del País/Tempranillo (from old vineyards), with a splash of Garnacha and other grapes, including whites. Medium Ruby with aromas of ripe fresh fruits, herb and complex spice. On the palate flavors of cherry and blackberry with vanilla oak and cacao. Good balance, fine elegant tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit and earthy character. Very nice! — 3 days ago

Very outstanding trio, bit of a shame to drink them together. 2011 amarone, 2017 la turque, 2020 cepparello — 3 months ago

NOSE: wood ash, cherry, earthworm, moldy books. Ehhh.

TASTE: actually pretty good. Blackberry, cherry, wood ash tannin, balancing acidity. Not as good as I’d hoped, but got it on closeout. 89.

Second time drinking this wine and not completely convinced...for the money there are so many better wines out there. Very smooth and rounded with nothing really jumping out. Maybe one for the future 🤗 — a month ago

Sweet tannins almost port like with very balanced tannins. 17 pct alcohol but accessible. Great but not quintarella which is still a level higher. — 3 months ago
