Spiced Cran-tobacco. Like kissing a leather-clad cowboy under a cranberry waterfall at thanksgiving. Pucker up!

Color cereza de capa media alta, con ribetes ocres.
Vino en el que predomina la madera sobre la fruta. Frutos rojos en compota y, sobre todo, tabaco, chocolate, cuero y café. Café sobre todo. Está madera se intensifica una vez el vino se oxida un poco.
En boca cacao y café. Acidez media. Taninos suaves y redondos. Cuerpo medio.
Suave al paladar, sedoso, amable.
Muy buena elección para quien disfrute de los vinos donde se note la madera.

Never placed this as Rioja. Dense power with chocolate and sweets that reminded me of Malbec. Nice!

God, smak av plommer i bringerbærsaus, lite tørr men likevel litt hvis du gurgler. Lettdrikkelig flytende væske

This 2016 was gifted to me at a meal I was hosting. Beautifully presented bottle and a Very pleasant, well balanced wine with great aromas. This paired really well with roasted beef.

Wow wow wow. Dry. Balanced and total hidden secret. Found this gem at the Duty Free in Frankfurt. Pick one up, and you won’t regret it.

Full body, great strong after taste. Had it with some Camembert, blue cheese, Brie and dates! Wonderful combination!
