Not the worst, not the best - probably won't buy again. A little bland, but drinkable.

Not here to crap on what I love- but out of the thousands of wines I tasted last year, this was the worst wine. Sour, unbalanced, no oak, rough. Medium bodied. Green red fruit. Tasted canned. Genuinely hard to drink. In general, I'd reco staying away from very young neo-fruity Spanish Tempranillo's.

Leather/tobacco and a hint of copper on the nose. Very bright, sour cherry on palate. Sliiiight notes of tobacco. Not the worst. Table wine at best.

Sour cherry tobaco to the nose...sour cherry cigar touch of vanilla to the palate. Smooth tannins light acids. Not the best tempranillo but decent for a weeknight.

Slightly sweet, grape juice flavor. Nice body for a cheap wine.
