Smells of dark cherry and black pepper.

Medium bodied with loads of fresh cracked peppercorns by, sour cherry, alder plank. A great RdD (Ribera del Duero)wine for the price, hints of star anise, some saline, and of course, river stone.
A nice way to celebrate C-19 shot

Smoke, graphite, crunchy black fruit, earth and a kiss of oak. I love this wine so much freshness/acidity and purity

Medium ruby. Slightly candied, red fruits, orange zest, hint of oak. A good pairing with stewed Guernicka beans.
Disclaimer: I import it.

Gosh...wish I had cases of this stuff. Lots of great red fruit. Nothing complex but everything seems to be in order. My last of six and just as delicious as the first. Drink or hold for another few years. Plenty of balance.
