For a Spamish wine this tastes and drinks more like a Bordeaux. Complex, not to sweet, and not as raw as a Spanish Rioja can sometimes be. Surprisingly good.

In Vino Veritas Session 4 (MIT): Needs some time to really blossom. After a 2-hour decant this was still not quite open. Dark, deep, leathery, medium-high tannin, warm oak and bright medium-high acid. Quite chewy, warm and nicely savory. Exceptional back-end - quite perfumed, warm spices - some nutmeg and a little clove perhaps, but I'm digging for descriptors that don't quite get there. 90+. 13%, $30.

Needs air to settle down, but not giving much pleasure.
