  November 3, 2013 - Had this at Racion in Pasadena. A perfect tapas wine - on the lighter/spicier side, held up to both cod fritters and squid ink pasta.

  April 23, 2012 - relatively light body and unremarkable nose. Lighter color than I expected given the stated blend. Too much oak on the palate and chewy tannins. From the list at Jaleo Bethesda at 4x retail markup.

  April 14, 2011 - Surprisingly bright fruit, slight florality, liquorice, some spices and classy oak.
  Full-bodied palate with red and dark fruit, medium grip, balanced acidity and notes of toffee, spice and liquorice. Warm long finish.
  Nothing extraordinary, but way better than I recalled. Aired for a couple of hours.
