  not sure if the "gifted" wine was stored improperly or regifted. Whaterever the case, the best that I can say is I hope this doesn't ruin my spaghetti sauce as it is being regated to cooking

  Family Holidays; 7/28/2023-9/10/2023 (Alicante - España): By the glass. Standard nose with notes of black berries, cassis or earthy even. In the mouth is more balsamic, fresh and subtly balanced. Short finish but tasty aftertaste. Merely fair.
  
  Por copas. Nariz estándar con notas de bayas negras, cassis o incluso terrosas. En boca es más balsámico, fresco y sutilmente balanceado. Final corto aunque de regusto sabroso. Meramente aceptable.

  Disappointing when first opened; mainly bland fruit; improved as it was open including second day. A few dusty CS notes but mainly red fruit; pleasant enough and well balanced. No sign of heavy handed oak: a plus. Can't complain at this price but previous vintages were significantly better. Maybe this vintage will improve with age?

  Medium ruby hue. Aromas of bell pepper, black cherry, blackcurrant, and chocolate, with more dark fruit, oak, and pepper on the palate. Medium body, with medium-plus acidity and medium tannins.
