Drank this at Tasca wine bar in LA, a great tapas bar. Dark purple color had initial nose of vanillin and cookie dough which I don't like in my reds. That blew off then it screamed of blueberry pie. Drank well with a variety of heavier foods including steak, black sausage and a plate of chicken, liver and pork pâtés. Chewy but not over the top at all.

Best wine yet of our south american run. Still many more days to go though. Bold plum color - nice nose but slightly restrained - plum and berry with a great hint of cumin seeds. Fair mouthfeel and finish.

This is an entry level for premium catenas wines. Was Plum red with violets notes. Sweet and green pepper notes with black fruits and some almonds. is a medium body wine with good bitter note. astringent well balanced with intense retrotaste. is a just wine.
