Good deep burgundy, medium to full body with a nose full of cherries and oak. The cherry definitely comes through on the tongue with other very ripe berries and a little smokiness with only a little tannins. Really good tapas night wine!

I had with a couple of meals over two days (Chicken then beef). The nose didn't really grab me and the taste really didn't pare with either meals. It was okay but it was not a wine that I would get again.

Popped and Poured. Attractive, expressive nose right from the start. Ripe fruit with a little bit of earth for good measure. Garnet color; not very deep but certainly not light either. The fruit was just as lively on the palate and a surprsingly decent, 15 second finish. Held up very nicely for three hours without a hint of throwing in the towel. A good amount of sediment in the last glass. For the money, it's hard not to recommend this one. A great daily drinker and enough acidity there to go well with tapas.

Great example of the varietal - Black fruit on the nose. Plummy on the palate. Quite alcoholic feeling for 13.5%

Blue and black fruit and all up front. And then no finish and short.
