Still breathing some life with faint brown edges surfacing to reveal it's age. Not especially fond of this Tempranillo blend that is still showing it's spicy raisin flavor intermixing with cassis and black fruit. Ready to drink, of course, and worth the 15-18 dollar price point. Another Spanish bargain that I should have consumed earlier.

Good tannins. Simple with a bit of spice. Not a whole lot to it. Nose is a bit peppery. Soft and earthy to the taste. A bit more fruit than I was expecting.

- Violet color and has flavours of cherry and apricot - Very cherry, apricot and floral patterns. Medium body. Good everyday wine but not really a distinctive blend. A well balanced flavor that can use a day to open.

Cassis with dark berry on the finish. Flavors are melding together making individual ID more difficult. Had with pan seared NY Strip - nice
