Sipping Fine Wine

7.5

Kind of unusual for a Spanish red. Deep red color with sweet Berry aromas. The palate displays sweet jammy fruits, raspberry and cherry. Somewhat smooth in character but not overly complex. Noted acidity and some spice ends on the medium finish. Ok if you are having a pizza, but put some oak on my Tempranillo!
