Community Tasting Note

Thursday, March 10, 2011 - This is in a good spot now but still took an hour or so to show well. Purple in color. I never would have guessed Tempranillo. The nose started as leather and dark cherries with some vanilla. With air, it got a delightful earthy funk to it. Full bodied. On the palate, this is dark cherries and leather. It has a nice complexity with decent acidity. Nice finish. Went very well with the food. Only my second time trying this winery, the first was a 99 drunk way too young, but they make some really nice Tempranillo. Tastes more like a modern version than a traditional Rioja, but very good.
