Suprisingly nice tempranillo for $10. Crushed berries and a bit of tosty oak on the nose wile the palate was smooth and brought out more fruit than a typical tempranillo. The finish was not quite up to par with more opulent wines, never the less it is very nice, and a great value.

What a wine! I've never had a 2004 this cheap that was a really good wine. Oak and red fruits on the nose. Blueberry and blackberry fruits to taste. Sturdy tannins and very quaffable. Had it with hummus, le saucissons, and hard ewe's milk Spanish cheese. So good.

Spicy, fairly complex. Maybe a little too spicy for me. Still seems pretty young.
