New to wine, but this is the best cheap wine we've ever had. Tried two bottles at two different events and loved it so much, we bought a case. Our first case! A little fruity with a nice mellow finish.

A lovely well-priced juicy red from the Spanish Extramadura. Darker fruit and sweet flowers on the nose, with earth and vegetables in the background; a blast of pure, bright, almost sweet, reddish fruit flavors in the mouth (plums, sweet cherries, black cherries), with firm but well integrated tannins for balance; nice finish, ending at last with green pea notes. I think this would be a hit at large gatherings.

Excellent value. I really like this wine. Expected some heat spike from the 15% ABV but it did not come through. Well balanced purple and dark red fruit with moderate tannins and nice acidity. I am hoping to pick up a couple more bottles tomorrow as this is a nice value wine to break out with friends on any night.

Like most of the red wine from Spain I have had recently this is a good quality wine. I was a bit disappointed though in the body of the wine (Light-medium). Finish is OK but not memorial. Initial taste is medium fruit followed by a dry finish.

Pretty good for the price. Best of three inexpensive wines that we had at a family dinner.
