Tasting Group Dinner - Spain (Solera, Minneapolis): Very spicy, oaky nose. Concentrated red fruit and licorice on the palate. Long finish. This seems to have good underlying fruit, acidity and structure, but the oak is still fairly obtrusive. If the oak integrates over the next few years, my score will prove conservative.
