Not a bad wine. As a matter of fact, this one is very dense and chewy. Purple and black fruits. Sweet tobacco and plum in the middle. Surprised at the tannin here. Still quite stiff on the finish and would have guessed this one was possibly a 2012 or 2013. I feel this one has quite a number of years left. Still think this would be capable of more than where it is now, but nonetheless a good wine now.

Ok, may have undershot rating last bottle. This one very dense and chewy, lots of tannin and acid, leather, cherry, jam, watermelon jolly rancher, road tar. Dark purple in glass, 14.5% abv, long, long finish.

Leather, plum, tobacco, spice. Great example of Tempranillo from Spain. Rich and lush, even for a 10 year old, old world, wine.
