The 2014 ‘Condado de Haza’ by Alejandro Fernandez is a 100% Tempranillo wine, sourced from their estate vineyards. This shows toasty oak with lovely savory character on the nose with red fruits and bell pepper accents. The mouthfeel and texture here is excellent as the wine delivers beautiful earthy tones with red and dark fruit flavors and a touch of chocolate. With bright acidity, this will cellar well over the next decade. Drink 2019-2029- 91

Moderately extracted purple-red, excellent clarity. Canned green bean and black currant notes in nose initially, the veg notes changes to briar after an hour. Black currant and blackberry flavors, chewy tannins, tart berry finish, light but chewy seed tannin astringency in aftertaste. Worth decanting this one at least three hours, else it will be a bit lacking in fruit. Good acidity for food here.

Funky feed store nose. Manure. Softer on the palate with berry and violet notes.

Hearty and bright but still very refreshing. Excellent pairing with a good Spanish or Southern European meal

Toasty oak and leather nose. Very approachable wine with good fruit and a long finish. Went well with grilled sirloin.

Intense and developed nose with cranberry and cooked black cherry. Organic and oaked with some rotundone. Grape tannins initially present; med length. Body lacking. Tinto fino?
