10/28/2022 - G.O. wrote: 80 pointsDarkest color ever, almost opaque. The aroma was promising but it tastes like...aronia juice! I liked those berries in my childhood, but my taste has changed since then. If you have tasted those berries then you are familiar with that strange sensation in your mouth. In combination with 15% alcohol, this is not a pleasant drink. Speaking of food pairing, I can imagine only some desserts, like apple pie. |

Definitely some sweetness in the mouth which reminds me of a young Amarone. Long finish. At this stage still at the beginning of a long drinking window. |

10/18/2013 - henry_chinaski Likes this wine: 90 pointsCharred oak wafts from the glass and envelopes the dark, rich fruit laden palate. Delicious. Powerful. Modern. Know what you're in for, and you'll have a good time. |

3/4/2013 - vinatelia.com Likes this wine: 95 pointsThis wine of garnacha tintorera (a grape whose pulp is dark) is surprising: its opacity is very high, and its legs tint the glass. It´s powerful, but complex. It´s very hard to find something like this for this price. I really like it. |

7/31/2013 - Sniktaw Does not like this wine: NRWe seldom pour out a bottle that isn't spoiled. But then again we seldom both taste a Spanish Red and say "It's sweet!" in unison. What a disappointment. |

12/14/2022 - mbk07 wrote: 89 pointsPolarizing wine, very concentrated, spicy and many pressure, but a bit one-dimensional, missing complexity, the second glass did not give you more information. However it´s a remarakble wine with power. |

Einnig einhvers konar timbur eða viður, greni kannski? Talsverð sæta á tungu. Svört kirsuber, lakkrís og kaffi á tungu. Góð fylling en vantar sýru og ferskleika. í lokin kom svo apótekaralakkrís. Hafði verið umhellt í um klukkutíma. Veit ekki alveg með þetta vín. Það kostar um 23€ sem gerir svipað og Valduero Crianza. Of sætt fyrir minn smekk. |

7/14/2021 - drdan8 Does not like this wine: 78 pointsThis is one sickly sweet mess... Confected, lacks acidity, and gives Spanish Grenache a bad name ! This may appeal to the cocktail wine crowd, but it is certainly not an enjoyable drink. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

1/18/2022 - bradfriedlander Likes this wine: 95 pointsDeep extraction. New French oak on the nose. Sweet, dark ripe Bing cherries. Plus Cassis and ripe plum. Sustained finish. Very soft tannins. Easy to drink. Pairs well with oven fried chicken and eggplant. Also goes nicely with chocolate. |

7/17/2019 - bradfriedlander Likes this wine: 92 pointsRich, dark berries and cherries. Almost a preserve without the sweetness. Long finish. A little hot when opened. Great after decanting for over an hour. Has quite a few years of life left. |

5/20/2019 - GlenviewGSW wrote: 89 pointsdark purple almost black in the glass. a nose of black pepper and ripe fruit is appealing. This is a big wine with very ripe fruit that on one hand is interesting and with the right food like barbecue nice but on its own and after a glass or two I found it maybe a little over extracted and cloying. |

9/29/2020 - Angel Lupercio Likes this wine: 93 pointsThis wine is deep garnet in color with a med intensity of aroma. The nose consists of prunes, stewed blackberries, cardamom, black pepper, ripe raspberries, cedar, milk chocolate, and cotton candy. This wine is bone dry with med(+) acidity, med(+) body, high alcohol, and a med(+) finish. The palate consists of nutmeg, black pepper, grilled strawberries, stewed blackberries, vanilla, and eucalyptus. Overall, this is a very good wine that should be drunk now. |

6/19/2022 - brett228 wrote: 85 pointsRipe black fruit, strong tannin, full-bodied garnacha. So intense and concentrated fruits, messy leg and overly sweet. Alcohol is quite high(16%) but controlled well. This was too strong and simple for me and the second day was better for me as it became a little mild. Though it’s not my thing at all, couldn’t deny it’s well-made approachable wine. |
