Much different than the first go. Bottle variation?

S - Very interesting matte yellow to gold color with secondaries of green and silver. Tearing is medium
N - Clean and young with moderate intensity. White flowers, honeysuckle, and baked pear pie. Soft and creamy.
P - Dry full and round with tastes of slightly tart apple, wet stone and white flowers. This is a nicely balanced wine. Acid: medium. Alcohol: medium Length: medium Complexity: medium+
The color of this wine is intriguing and for me it plays a substantial part in the texture.

Spessartine rim around a body of cherry red. Nose of tobacco and cellar funghi with the slight addition of ammonia towards the end.
Tastes of the earth and caramelized black cherries. Super nice old vines Tempranillo with characteristic Rioja qualities. Will revisit this wine in a couple of years to track its evolution .

Big smooth silky red. This wine drinks at a level considerably higher than its' price. Anise, currant, pepper and figs on the palate.
Wonderful wine.

Decent table wine. Hints of berry but not much. Also got a little euro fish market out of this bottle. Is that good? I can't make up my mind. Not much character to this one. Oh well onto the next wine.

Simple wine but highly drinkable. Deep garnet red, mild tannins. Light plum on the nose and in taste, also a little spice. At this price drink up.

Ruby red in color with a nose of sour berry/watermelon with a little spice. The aroma is reminiscent of a rosé. Palate of raspberry and pepper with low to medium low acidity. Very easy to drink with or without food.

Lovely color of dark purple plum. Light on the nose. Smooth fruity taste with hints of funghi. Medium body, medium tannins. Although nothing extraordinary this bottle went down with relative ease. Nothing "buzzy" about this wine. Great value. This is a wine that will appeal to most.
