Still expressive nose with plums, blackberries and a bit earthy (Mushrooms). The taste is smooth, body is Medium with soft tannines and pleasant acidity. The wine has Polished texture, some chocolate and a bit spicy finish. Good wine, my last bottle.

Dark berry, plum, earth, spice, pepper and a hint of game flavors, medium bodied, good balance and texture. Even better the second night, so I think this still has some legs. A very nice bottle, especially at the price.

Very nice Spanish red, particularly for the money. Paired with spicy puerco in a green tomatillo sauce, worked very nicely. Bright red cherry, spice, pepper flavors, nice balance and acid.

Sweet black fruit, cassis, plum, earth, spice and pepper, very tasty! Last bottle, too bad.

Never lets me down. A solid Spanish wine for minimum dosh. On the downside, so drink up ASAP.
