It's a 2015. It's pretty solid and grows on you. Let it open up or decant for awhile.

Very good value. Smooth at open and gets slightly tannic on the finish. Great every day type wine at this price.

Not as bold a Tempranillo as I am used to but still good. Finish is not one that lasts.

Lots of dark fruit notes, slight vanilla at the backend. Smooth mouthfeel, light, and crisp.
