Not aggressive for a Tempranillo. Just happy it didn't break in the back from business trip bag. Bought two bottles and forgot I had no corkscrew and chances my suits! Perhaps it tastes better as a result

Full bodied and robust, smooth with mild tannins. Eminently drinkable.

Deceptively (and a tad disappointingly) fruity on the front end, but nicely peppery in the follow-through.
