It’s got a meaty nose, somewhat musty, like a wet old basement (which isn’t bad), with notes of cranberry on the nose, some dark plum DEEP in there, and some slight tinned tomato like notes. Medium bodied, with slight tannin, spicy tingle, with tomato, tar, cigar smoke and charcoal on the finish. I haven’t had a Spanish Tempranillo in a while and I’d say this is a pleasant re-introduction to the grape varietal.

Super woody and earthy. Incredible rustic notes and wild berry tastes with a soft, but dusty tannin structure.

Revisit, new vintage.
Weighty, plum, currant, licorice.
Tobac, pine shavings. A good wine, with both depth, structure, and long chewy plank finish. Tasty.
