Nice bouquet and richly fruited mid-palate, but the alcohol makes an appearance on the back end and mars an otherwise enjoyable QPR wine.

Vino de capa alta, en nariz tostados altos , salmón y notas minerales. En boca buena entrada y un final con fruta estructura y secante.

Rather surprised by inky color w/minor lighter purple shade at edge - otherwise looked & tasted like a recent vintage: fairly muscular w/rugged tannins & power - earthy w/cherry & blackberry notes w/cassis & vanilla. Tannins smoothed out but this lacked acidity & cohesiveness on palate thru the slightly harsh finish.

Nice Spanish blend of Garnacha, Syrah & Cabernet. Full bodied, structured and lingering finish. Some acidity. Aged in oak. Great price. Spanish wines are a great value. Good with stuffed pork chops.

Cook and pair with chicken Targine, which is perfect, slight acidic, fruity, easy to drink

Sweet attack, really it's like the sweetness you get when drinking POM pomegranate juice and the label does describe pomegranates... It also reminds me of overripe plums. All that plus a very evident smoky undertone and a full bodied, full mouth feel (label says structured) tannic chewy alcoholic finish

Nice bouquet. But yes a little too much alcohol on the end.
