Critic Review: 100% Tempranillo. Dark red. Spicy red berries and cherry on the nose, with hints of cracked pepper and dried rose. Crisp and dry on the palate, with spicy redcurrant and cherry flavors, light tannins and a fresh, energetic finish. An excellent value, and surprisingly elegant for this price point.
My Review: This had a jam-like aroma. It tasted tangy, but was well balanced. I couldn't really pick out any specific flavors out of it, it just tasted like unripe berries. I did not try this wine with food.
