Nice enough, not as taken as my last go. Simple, one dimensional fruit with maybe another layer...easy to drink solo and decent match with light food. Not sure if I would seek this out on the next offering.

Nice example of lighter and fruit forward spanish vino. Nose is light but palate brings some acid and firm tannin that mellow after 30 mins of air. Bright fruit in there with a couple other complex notes. Nice enough and has the QPR.

Even Opimian can't screw up a good Spanish wine, and this was no exception as one of 3 really good wines bottled by/for Opimian - Dark, well concentrated with a nose of blackfruit, plum, cherry, spice and vanilla, nicely balanced, spicy complexity, smooth, dry on the palate with really good length, nicely done (90 Points).
