Interesting and Distinctive. Light but still exciting. Better than the "Pulchrum" from same winery. Shared it with two non-winos and they asked for more..... Never happened with any other varietals! A real sleeper!

This my go to wine whenever I have people over that I know are not big wine folks. Cherry /raspberry nose, midly spicy, nice mouthfeel and decent finish. Really easy and pleasant to drink. For around 20, I don't think I have ever had a better wine. Not very complex but not overly simple either. I have had wines triple the price that were not as good. Highly recommended, especially for those times you are not sure what someone will like and you don't want to overpower them with your favorite barolo.

Slightly peppery, slightly fruity, slightly tart, slightly rustic - overall rather non-descript. Nothing really stands out. I do agree with another taster, the forward fruit and acidity make me think of Italy, not Spain. I'm not buying again at $25 a bottle.

This is a new grape for me. I wouldn't guess this is Spanish. Reminds me of a classic Italian red. Leather, tobacco and ripe fruit on the nose. Sharp, mint, eucalyptus and cherry on the palate. Interesting creamy finish.

Really interesting old vine vidadillo. Fruity with some raisin character. Soft tannins and acidity. A good food wine.
