Blend of (mostly) Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo. Another solid vintage of this Crianza-Styled Rioja. Medium inky ruby color with garnet highlights. Plush aromas of ripe plums and dark berries with a subtle note of beef jerky and wet soil. Juicy dark berry and plum flavors also fill the palate with additional notes of black tea and dark caramel. Hint of cocoa on the tart and spicy finish. Medium-bodied, with silky tannins and a velvety texture. Outstanding QPR! — 25 days ago

Deep Ruby with an elegant bouquet of ripe berry fruits, pepper spice with earthy tones, a traditional Rioja, aged 24 months in American and French oak. On the palate flavors of plum and jammy cherry, tobacco, oak, pepper spice, lively acidity. Fine chewy tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, oak, spice and an earthy character. — 7 months ago

Was looking for a pinot but this was found in cellar. Figured it would work with Easter ham and the half Italian heritage of my wife. Good enough. — 19 days ago

Scents of chocolate, licorice, and plum. Palate of plum sauce, black cherry, and tar. Firm tannins blend well with juicy black fruits. Long, drying finish. Very nice. More of an international style.

Tempranillo tasting! Aromas of red cherry and barnyard funk. Notes of petrol, wet leaves, red cherry, and leather. Medium bodied with chalky tannins (on cheeks) with a medium finish. After opening up, the funk and petrol lessened greatly. — 2 months ago

Enjoyed this wine. Very oaky, like a new world zin. Full bodied, very dry and tannic. Paired nicely with chorizo and vino with saffron rice. Would love to have again. — 6 months ago
