6/15/2022 - Ajuha4 Likes this wine: 85 pointsNose of vanilla pod. Getting dark berry, cardamom, licorice and pine. Just slightly more than a light bodied wine. Leaves a silky mouth feel. Would pair nicely with a salted caramel ice cream or figs glazed in balsamic vinegar. Give me glass of this with chili con carne. |

9/30/2015 - Mike Kopanski wrote: 85 pointsUnfortunately, I am pretty disappointed with this purchase. There is a medicinal flavor and aroma that drowns out the fruit and other flavors. Tried a decant and some heavy swirling which changed the profile to an evergreen, narrow, sharp, iron and hard water flavor that doesn't help things. I don"t mind the evergreen flavor, but wonder "where is the fruit"? As we drink down the glass there is a menthol, mint flavor. Trying to give this wine some love, and it is responding with air and time in the glass to where I am going to raise my score a point as the finish is blowing off those undesirable flavors and letting some red fruit emerge. |

I was intrigued when one a my favorite merchants said this wine was a favorite at a dinner with many more expensive offerings. I love Spanish wine but have not had any for an extended length of time. This offers a light, inviting nose of spice, red fruit with a bright entrance. Some red raspberry and floral notes on the nose open to an accessible medium-bodied wine with good balance and excellent drinkability. Bright and light on its feet from Ribera del Guadiana, an not too familiar region. Worth a try, heck- worth a case. |

Overripe black plum almost to the point of being cloying in nature. Almost a stewed prunes flavor which I definitely did not remember the first time around. I am trying to determine whether it was a potentially flawed bottle or if my first tasting of this was a fluke. At this price point I can certainly find out. |

1/31/2013 - wineOK wrote: 89 pointsExcellent value. I really like this wine. Expected some heat spike from the 15% ABV but it did not come through. Well balanced purple and dark red fruit with moderate tannins and nice acidity. I am hoping to pick up a couple more bottles tomorrow as this is a nice value wine to break out with friends on any night. |

2/4/2013 - wahoo70 Likes this wine: 88 pointsA lovely well-priced juicy red from the Spanish Extramadura. Darker fruit and sweet flowers on the nose, with earth and vegetables in the background; a blast of pure, bright, almost sweet, reddish fruit flavors in the mouth (plums, sweet cherries, black cherries), with firm but well integrated tannins for balance; nice finish, ending at last with green pea notes. I think this would be a hit at large gatherings. |
