Aromas of primarily dark with some red berry fruit, vanilla, and mineral. Medium bodied on the palate with a smooth and polished mouthfeel with fairly good acidity. Decent length. A nice everyday quaffer with good ripe fruit as opposed to the 2010 which I felt was downright jammy. I note that the bottle says that it contains 100% Tempranillo (although I do know the Riserva can contain some Cabernet Sauvignon, this apparently does not).

What a great bargain from Spain. Deep purple color ala Malbec. Brambly hot nose; medium bodied, acidic, berry and mineral flavors. Good clinging finish. The Cabernet Sauvignon really comes through. Muy beuno!
