Community Tasting Note

  • VinVet Likes this wine: 90 points

    June 23, 2016 - Leather, oak and cherry nose. Well balanced dark fruits, soft tannins and mild acidity. Improves in the glass with greater harmony, lengthy warm finish.

I have corrected it in my tasting notes. Thanks for calling me on that one. Vega Sicilia's entry level wine is outstanding value in my opinion.
