Wonderful, generous, open knit reserva! Super high quality dark fruit... I can't wait to have it with lamb blocks!

Complex, rich nose, but fading palate of spice, cherry, clove,& tobacco. Still worthy, but beyond what I would have imagined one would have experienced in its prime. $20 locally. 13.5% abv.
