Blend: Monastrell 40%, Tempranillo 40%, Cabernet Sauvignon 20% Color: Dark purple (opaque) Aroma: Blackberry, earthy Taste: Earthy, soft blackberry, fruity Finish: Long Notes: Very nice wine with our dinner. I had it with a seafood paella -- good pairings. The salad had a sweet balsamic dressing -- that definitely did not work with the wine.

MCRI (Conference room): 5/7/10: Smooth, rich, full mouth feel and no tannins. Fruit bomb, without being over the top. I don't really like this as much as I once did. 87
1/15/10: Delicious little fruit bomb. Some spice and raspberry and blackberry fruit. A little meatiness here. Really delicious stuff. Yummy. 88

This time around it cam across as too heavily extracted and one dimensional - not sure if I've tired of the style or the wine lost its charm.

An inexpensive wine that you can share with wine drinkers of all levels. Everyone really enjoyed this wine.
