Dark fruits and hints of pepper. Another good Spanish red but with a bit more acidity than most.

I'm of two minds about this wine. First, the reductive nose is off putting. But the wine itself is a wonderful expression of old school Grenache, with full dark plum and berry flavor that shows restraint and lets a wave of black pepper and bacon fat ride on top. Reminds me of old school Lirac. And that's a good thing.

I had the 2013 5 years later. Blockbuster. I taste just the right amount of tannins, cherry, wood, and a slight draw on the after tongue. It has some legs and for a dark color no particles or crystals. Nicely done. Want more.
