Medium ruby to purple in color; green peppercorns , cherries, and dried herbs on the nose; medium plus acidity; medium tannins; tastes like raspberries, plums, and bell peppers with a long fruity finish. Nellie says it's ok. I like it. Paired really well with a steak. — 2 months ago
Light on the nose. Hints of cherry. Pallet has fruity notes of plum, black cherry, and raspberries. Not too dry. Medium bodied. I’m seeing reviews saying they get spicy. I’m not picking that up. Not too acidic. — 4 months ago

Da bomb, for sherry lovers: Palo Cortado versión.

Other bottlings tasted more layered, I’d like to think, but for the peni-ultimate wine equivalent of salted caramel, this is it. Caramel not sweet at all,& the more fluid body from Palamino. Perhaps a tad too salty- but who doesn’t like salted caramel? 375ml bottle. Kinda cool how many deals are to be had in the Barbadillo line up. — 2 months ago
