Garnet color, medium minus body, medium plus acidity, bright cherry and strawberry flavors, hardly any tannins and none of the odixized flavors typical of a Spanish Rioja which is a plus for this nice fruity easy drinking wine.

Garnet color with rustic,brambly, red fruit aromas. On the palate it's medium-bodied, and fresh with dusty tannins and black cherry, pomegranate flavors, and a lingering finish.

Needs decanting! Had a poor, sharply sour, bitter aroma right after opening the bottle. This isn't in the flavor, and it gets much better as it opens up. Was much better on day 2, when a sweet fruit note develops, and spicy berries are really coming out in the aroma.

Nice wine. A bit rustic but varietally correct. Nose has plum, red fruit, spice, smoke, wet earth, and interestingly black licorice. Palate is balanced with just a bit of a tilt towards ripe fruit, California new world style. Finish is pretty and medium. Great as a weeknight wine!
