Deep Ruby, aromas of sweet red and black fruits with pepper spice and oak. 4 grape blend from some of CVNE's best vineyards in the Rioja Alta (85% Tempranillo, rest Garnacha, Mazuelo & Graciano), aged in both French and American oak for 24 months. On the palate flavors of blackberry and currants with licorice, vanilla, tobacco & toasty oak tones. Soft full ripe tannins, wonderful balance, lively acidity on a long finish ending with an earthy mineral character. Very nice! Tried several bottles! — 3 years ago
Aggressive and herbal on the nose, super smooth and silky on the palate. No doubt that this wine is Mediterranean. Pretty groovy. — 5 years ago
Pale, plum juice like color, with a deep cranberry hue towards the center. A surprisingly light body, with candied red fruit on the nose, maybe fruit-roll-up gummies or apricot chew, maybe some hibiscus candy. Spicy palate, with some nice acidic red fruit, cranberry, slightly gripping tannins towards the end, with a very dry, short, slightly mineral finish, with somewhat a refreshing end. Loves a nice chill, easy drinking. I can imagine sitting with a chilled glass of this overlooking the sea. — 8 months ago
