This wine must be decanted for a few hours before drinking. My first impression was a very tight highly alcholic wine. The alchohol was so strong I could breath it in and burn my nose. However, after I let it sit in my glass for about 1.5 hours, it came to life! I would definitely recommend this wine to anyone who likes tempranillo. It was a good representation of the spanish counterpart, with a little more fruit (California style, of course)
