Much better than before. Even better on the second day. Everything has smoothed out. Again, as before, I wouldn't peg anything as "Spanish", but it's a delicious wine. Initially, on opening, I sensed a sharpness of acid that was a distraction. D didn't notice it as much and liked it from the start. In 10 minutes, that had dissipated, and it turned into a fine, balanced wine... one dominated by dark flavors and a broad bottom. Worked well with food (a spicy shredded pork concoction). Much better overall than before.

Perfectly pleasant wine, but not identifiable. I'd be hard pressed to point out anything that is "Spanish". Good dark fruits. Balanced acids and tannins.
