Still tight but nice nose of cranberry and red cherry. A bit of flinty earth and darker berries with solid tannins on the finish. Many more years left in This one.

Really fine Tempranillo (Toro). 9 months on oak really makes this special. It really didn't open up to an 89 until the end, our bad on not decanting although we let it breathe 1/2 hour. This needs some air and you will be amply rewarded. Great QPR @ $15. Agree with prior comment on good concentration. Classic Crianza like you would like a good Crianza to be. Food-friendly, just enough acidity, would suggest less spicy grilled fare, we did it with a store-bought rotisserie chicken and homemade sides and the wine was the hit of the evening.

Easy drinking. No significant change with daily aging.
$13.19 from Pringles. Should buy 6 bottles and store for daily drinking
