Jam and red fruit on the noise, fruit forward with some spice on the mid palate and sweet tabbaco and pepper on the finish... With a bit I earthiness thrown in. Tannins are just right for this full body wine.. Give you just enough pucker factor. Over amazingly good wine for the price I you are looking for big flavor.. Nothing too subtle here

A very pleasant surprise. My first Tempranillo. The color very dark, deep purplish, brick, average legs, gigantic nose with black cherry, plum, tobacco, smoke, alcohol. All those on the palate, but without the punch of what you get from the nose. Nicely balanced, with low acid and tanin. The finish was'nt as long as I expected. For the money, tho, this was a winner.

Dark "inky"-purple color; black licorice & raspberries come through strongly on the nose with hints of other red fruits. The palette shows minerals and dark fruits with a hint of black pepper on the finish. Approachable tannins and overall an OK balance.
