Dark berries touch of vanilla. Plum, blackcurrant, juicy(ish) A hint of leather on day 2. Half Decent inexpensive RdD Day 3 from the fridge; same but with a ripe cherry texture although the flavour was cherry stone with little fruit. All up front, nothing from middle to back. Very short, though what's there is pleasant. Maybe my score is a little generous.
Wouldn't buy it again.

Dark berry fruits on the nose. Medium bodied with flavours of blackcurrant, a little earthy and a hint of vanilla. Quite acidic and tannic so would drink this with something like pasta with tomato sauce / pizza. No length. OK quaffing wine with food but nothing special. Would not buy this again.

Deep ruby to the eye. On the nose heavy black fruit - blackcurrant, black cherry. A hint of liquorice(?); sweet vanilla notes from the oak. Big on the palate - a full-bodied, rounded tempranillo dominated wine but the cabernet sauvignon lends some heavy metal tannins. A good wine. Perfect for autumn nights drawing in.

Mid range temparsnillo which has depth, flavour and mouth filling complexity. Plums, stone fruits with a touch of oak. Not too much. Very happy at this price point.
