I had not had it for a while. Surprised me for good. Expressive nose of strawberries, dark cherries, a hint of chocolate, darkness grows. Easy tannins of the 2020 vintage, good acid. Great, and great value

Shocked that the ratings are as low as they are--this is a damn good bottle.

Very balanced with room to grow. The legs show the complexity and the smell is dry and layered. Very Good with Iberico

Fruity aromas, medium bodied, dry finish, balanced acidity with hints of berries, cheries, herbs and earth tones. I really loved it!
