Medium- bodied, modern style with hints of rusticity developing. Nose is flat and simple with earth and bramble, but palate shows more depth and even what gives the impression of terroir: berries, juicy black plum, scorched earth, dried herbs, swelling morish acidity. Good enjoyable length and balance. Smooth and easy, with few betrayals of costs cut during winemaking. No weird oak, sweetness, or vanilla.
This bottle was leftover from a party years ago, and the branding kitsch almost obscures what is actually entirely decent inexpensive drinkable everyday grape water. Bravo!

Ripe, creamy and full of berry fruit. Tannins are sweet and soft and it has some floral notes. Plenty of wine here for the money. Definitely a punter's style that has enough interest to hold the attention of the seasoned campaigner.

An enjoyable simple wine. Easy to drink. Not complicated but some character to it.

Smooth rich stye of garnacha.
Completely different from the S de T that used to have a little plastic bull attached to the neck of the bottle

Bright, juicy... Not a lot of personality, but very pleasant value
