Spice, dark berry, plum, black licorice, beautiful acidity — 5 years ago
Very dry and acidic. Full of flavor with rich complexity, leading with blackberries and ending with coffee, oak and caramel. Best with red meat or other heavy food to cut through the acidity. — 5 years ago
Very nice with good steak and chips. Fruity cherries on nose. Very nice earthy complex taste. — 9 months ago

Eguren Ugate’s attempt at reviving a historical variety from Rioja, maturana. Fresh, intense wine hitting with black fruit l, a little spiciness. Sharp tannins indicate some aging would help. Really pleasant wine. — 7 years ago
This is the way. Super bien super fresh — 2 years ago
Needs a day or very thorough decanting to show best. Sour cherry, berry stem and a touch of Indian spices on the nose. Sour, almost limoncello like initially on the tongue, followed by stone fruit and a touch of rosemary. The limoncello and rosemary give it a sense of heat, although it's only 13.5abv. This is chorizo and olives' natural tango partner. — 6 years ago

Explosively lively, and so delicious. Tends towards being a bit too sour for some foods, so I’d say it is best drunk alone or with well-paired snacks. — a month ago
