Last bottle, and waited a while since the last one. Really in a great spot right now. Consistent with my prior note, but everything was amplified. Delicious.

Decanted 30 minutes but served a tad chilled from the cellar (about 62 degrees). Fruit bomb nose initially that mellowed with decanting. Strong cherry notes and pencil lingered with a hint of oak. Mild vanilla and citrus notes as well. Good depth and length with some heat on the finish; typical tempranillo. A great weekday drinker to be paired with spicier meals.

Tart red fruit (cranberries?) on the nose, along with some earthiness and herbal scents (eucalyptus?). Similar flavors, and some residual sweetness. Not showing a lot of tannin at this point.

From memory. Spicy fruit forward nose. Rich mouth. Mature polished tannins lent better structure than anticipated. Decent food wine but nothing special.

Consistent with prior note. In a great place right now. Cork had some creep.
