  This has that 'aged-wine' stewed tomatoes aroma and flavor that evolves into juicy red fruit over the first 30 minutes or so, plenty of tannins, but soft and elegant; a laid-back, tasty wine.

  Fruity nose. Cassis and stewed dark cherry with a light backbone of toasted oak and fairly short finish. It was quite drinkable right out of the bottle, but faded fast after about a day even with a vacuseal. Drink now.

  Has some very nice flavors, but unbalanced. Too much tannin. My teeth feel clean after drinking this.

  Lighter than I had anticipated. Still tasted youthful, but I do not think it will improve.

  A very tasty Tempranillo, rich, dark fruit with good acid bite and spice characteristics. Compared to the Southern Oregon cabs we had, this was far better.
