Concentrated ripe fruit, but you wouldn't know you were drinking a tempranillo if you didn't look at the label. Any subtleties are blown away by the fruit bomb aspect.

Oaky. Buttered popcorn flavors, not true to the varietal. Overall, a mediocre effort. Disappointing coming from this producer, as we normally enjoy their wines very much. I respect the fact that they experiment with different varietals, but this was not a winner.

Deep red color with aromas of boysenberry, blackberry and strawberries. Flavor is similar with some oak and astringancy. Not your typical Tempranillo.

Not much more than a fruit bomb.
