For the price, a very versatile wine that many wil love. A good one to have handy when you have a mismatch of food, such as a potluck. Very easy drinking - but summer and barbeque comes to my mind when I had this. Nice bouquet of floral and strawberrie

83-85. Deep ruby yet somewhat thin. A nose of raspberry jolly ranchers. Cranberries give way quickly to bright jammy cherry fruit cola with a strained tanic grip. Where's the Spain in this Spanish wine? Tastes more like an inexpensive Australian Shiraz or Cali Cab. No spice present from the Tempranillo or Garnacha - really putting these great grapes to shame. That said, it's perfectly drinkable if underwhelming. Drink now, or maybe make sangria.

Ripe fruity wine full of jam. Is this a Yellowtail experiment with Spanish red? Not bad, but definitely not what I was looking for from 'old vine' temp/garnacha.

Delightful fun wine. Not a serious...let's ponder this one for a while kind of wine. The fruit taste is blueberry syrup on pancakes. Yes it is on the sweet side not so sweet as to be out of line with "fun". Certainly a drink while you cook...what do I serve with Chili (not too spicy). I had it tonight with beef stew - after a while I added some to the stew and it was a great combo.

Cherry forward sweetness with the touch of old world toastiness. Not quite a bad find for the price point.
