Delicious with food. Black and red fruit notes, decent minerality and acidity. I consumed it over two nights and it matched well the first night with grilled sirloin and the second night with a herb and pecan crusted baked salmon. Very good for the money as the mazuelo, syrah and Grenache blended very nicely.

84: An interesting blend of Garnacha (20%), Syrah (40%), and Mazuelo (40%). Barely drinkable out of the bottle due to insane tannins, but aeration makes it very smooth on the tongue. Leads with strong but not distinctive red fruit. Astringent aftertaste. Kind of heavy alcohol but not really noticeable as a flavor. The most memorable part is the label, which is quite beautiful.

Yet another solid Spanish (Montsant) QPR. Warm blue/black fruit, good balance, satisfying finish. What else do you want from a <$15 bottle of wine?
