2015 vintage- Very nice oak and leather taste that hits your taste buds right away. Then, linger a vanilla, cherry, and earl Grey tea profile at the back of your tongue. Very soft and smooth but complex if you let it breathe for 45 mins.

Fresh and smooth, lovely acidity. A bit too oaky for me. Taste much better on the second day. Great value.

Had the 2008 Gran Reserva. Light and spicy, went well with many different foods.

Actually a little bright and fruity for me. Somewhat sharper than my tastes have been running.
Update: Let it sit around a bit; flavors deepen with considerable exposure. Had it under VacuVin for a few days and the sharp fruity edges melted away. More plummy, raisin-y flavors now shine through. Bumping from a "not for me" 7.3 to a respectable 8.0.

A sound wine with modest bottle bouquet and light red color. At $17 a fair value for fans of more delicate styled wines.
