Surprisingly good at the price! Deep ruby. Strawberries, black cherries nose & palate. Little caramel on the palate also. Medium bodied, quite fresh. Medium tannins. Cab Sauv, Merlot, Tempranillo blend. For drinking (I think-not come across it before) over the next 2-3 years.

New wine to me from northern Spain. Blend of Macabeo, Chardonnay & alcanon (which I’ve never heard of.) Medium lemon. Tropical fruits, lime nose. Dry, medium bodied long finish. Quite rich, passion fruit, mango palate with a hint of salinity. Very good wine which gives me the impression that it should go on drinking well for at least 2-3 years.

Deep ruby. Black cherries, damson, syrup, fig nose. Similar palate with cedar. Smooth, well balanced with well integrated tannins. Good wine which will probably continue drinking well for another 3-5 years (couple of bottles left.)
