This is an outstanding wine. Had it 4/20/2011. Deep dark in color. Great nose but full of taste that does not show in the nose. Even a taste of chocolate. One of the better wine I have had lately.

I am Tempranillo and Sangiovese lover so this wine should be for something special for meand in fact it is, but expected more. Dark deep red color. Nose with impressive aromas - black cherry, violet and then blackberry, choco and leather. Good tannins, full body, long.

Dark color, sweet oak in the nose, on the palate initially rather oaky, then lush, sweet fruit, food finish. I did recognize this as neither Tempranillo (50%) nor Sangiovese (50%). Thoroughly modern styled to the point of being indistinguishable in terms of grape/region... I would not buy this again.

Tasted 4/21/06-- big dark red that is closed and only started to show its fruit and balance after being open for several hours.I'll retry the wine in 2years and it will still have several years of good drinking ahead.

Very full bodied with choclately berry and hint of tobacco. Great wine, too bad my last bottle. Lots of life in this one.
