Earthy, silky, low acidity, wonderful — 7 years ago
Thoroughly enjoy this wine, as it opens up it develops into a reason to buy more. Leather, cassis, preserved jams, with a soft tannic structure. The finish plays and chews. Did I mention I found it for $13?!! — 9 years ago
I did not take notes as these wines were served over a casual lunch with the Tikal staff. This sparkling is made under Alma Negra label but made by the Tikal staff.

The Syrah in the blend adds some earthy, gamey, leather and spice notes to the aroma, an expression very reminiscent of the St. Joseph wines of northern Rhone. Medium to heavy body mouth feel and packed with dark cherry flavors and even some notes of haricot vert and mint. Medium long finish with the tannins balancing well with the coffee and red fruit after taste. A very polished style. — 7 years ago

Beautiful dark color. Complex nose, can’t place it. Almost herbal. Smooth and balanced from start to finish. Low to medium tannins. I really like this one. — 9 months ago
