Full body and dry. Mild intensity and terroir on the finish to reflect the Toro region but nothing special. Better with some aging versus earlier bottles. Decent with food.

More dense than a few years ago, but the fruit is now in the background. Hard to say what flavors were there - maybe some burnt toast or wood on top of blackberries . Did notice a hint of the Toro terroir on the finish. It's ok but nothing to write home about. Maybe past prime or in a dumb stage. Have not had much luck with 2007 Spanish wines.

Medium bodied, mixed red and dark fruits. Quite fresh with acidity quite prominent. Dry and lingering sour cherry finish. Classic tempranillo profile with a dash of Toro terroir. Good drinker but quite average for the price.

Really nice. Was somewhat closed on opening, although it still showed lots of wood and earthiness, but within an hour or so sweet fruits were coming up front. A solid Toro offering. Second night this was still going strong, now with a touch of graphite in the mix.
