Paired w grilled lamb chops. Deep purple color, not showing much evolution. Nose is all stewed blackberries w a hint of leafy notes. This feels like is has been acidified, with a hint of crushed kids vitamin. Tannins are robust and recall a lot of Napa Cab I've tasted from recent vintages. I suppose if you like rich wines, this may be reach perfection for you. For me, it was a bit harsh/unbalanced.

Almirez- This is a beast of a Tempranillo. Known in the DO as Tinta de Toro, the wine is brawny and brambly with licks of blackberry, vanilla and smoky plum. Full bodied with racy acidity and a penetrating finish. Rich and rugged. A goodie to have in the cellar. I love it. The 2012 vintage is drinking beautifully right now #toro #almirez #winetasting #winelover #winetime #tempranillo
