Big, full-bodied with smooth tannins. Dark berries, purple flowers, earth, smoke and seared meat. Great value.

Pronounced herbal, mint, eucalyptus note towards the end. Complex for the price, making me want to dive into Spain again. Evidence that being powerful AND refined is not impossible.

Dec 1st, 2018Cola and plum with a peppery finish. A little syrupy. Flavors aren’t really well integrated. Seems disjointed to me.

Oct 27th, 2018Color of dark purple, a bit cloudy, and a bit dried blood note. Nose of chocolate, cherry, green pepper, strength of alcohol, and some medicinal sweetness. Taste is a bit dull in the beginning with quite intense acidity. Then some cherry and raisins, mild tannins, a bit chocolate, bit too strong sulfate note, and dense. Aftertaste of some dark fruity note and chocolate, some more sulfate note. Dense however a bit off balanced in terms of acidity and bitter note.

May 28th, 2018I liked it, Jill thought it was just ok. $15 at Costco, I think priced right.
