Portuguese Field blend of Tints Barroca, Tinta Roriz and Rufete. Dark ruby color with a thin garnet rim. Aromas and flavors of black and red bramble berries, baking spices and roasted meat. Quite concentrated and bold. Touch of oak, vanilla and dill on the long and lingering finish. Nicely integrated (soft) tannins and medium-plus acidity. Nice intensity. Thank you for opening this wine, Ron B! — a month ago

Fruit forward apricot aromas with briny undertones, soft acidity and a rounder structured body with apricot and olives and lingering saline minerality. — 4 months ago

Such rustic and funky wine! Love it. Pale color, forest floor, red fruits, and foxy. Good acidity and saline taste, medium length. Decant it at least an hour. — a year ago

100% Rufete from small parcels in the village of Miranda del Castañar, in the heart of the Sierra de Francia, to the south of Salamanca. Fermented in stainless steel and aged in used French oak barrels for 7 months. Fresh, juicy, ripe red fruits and some herbal notes. Mineral. Reminiscent of Beaujolais. — 7 months ago

Dark rich black fruits (blackberry), strong anise and some vanilla on the nose, and tastes like it smells. Light on the palate but big tannins and big acid, peppery finish, balanced and complex. — 8 months ago

Like a heavier beaujolais. Acidic but also jammy. Layered yummy fruits — 2 years ago
