La Rioja, Spain
100% Tempranillo, deep Ruby with aromas of red and black fruit with hints of spice. Palate shows dark Berry fruit flavors, ok structure and balance, tannins were fine but somewhere grainy. Medium finish ending with spicy notes. Ok for $10 Tempranillo.

What can I say, a big Spanish red! Very rich, flavorful ...like a cab, but more robust, fruity...

Not a “super bueno” Rioja. Had the 2021 in November of 2022. Some hints of cherry up front and a lot of tannins on the finish. Feel like the taste and mouth feel were somewhat “muddied”. I like my Riojas with more wood character and cherry quite honestly. Was okay but would not seek this one out again.

An amazing, full bodied & commanding Spanish Rioja! Sturdy, and mature with a nice juicy red fruit finish that interjects a shot of bright jelly feel at the last lingering taste. Wonderful glass - pair this with a meal or cheese!

Jul 20th, 2022Bright juicy red cherry meets a smooth slope of flavor: this amazing Rioja. Mature on the nose, well structured body that tapers into a great crisp finish…good glass!

Oct 1st, 2021Very dry with cherry flavors. Has a heavy after taste of alcohol on the back end.

Nice cherry flavors up front. Easy on the palate. Better on the first day than the second.

Decent wine with fruit and nice mouth feel though a bit thin.
