  2/18/2017 - Delectable Blue Likes this wine: 90 Points

  100% tempranillo, the wine has intense dark plummy fruits, but is not overly sweet. The mid-palate is dark and dusty, with dried herbs, soft spice and a hint of resinous cedar. The oak is toasty and slightly nutty, delivering tannins that are a little chewy and really need some time to settle down and integrate. However the wine has great structure and good balance, so it should age well. Quite nice actually.
