Apr 23rd, 2017Too smooth for Rioja; delicious & easy drinking, but not what I was hoping for (blend considered), but the rating system is: "not for me" to "love it", & even though it wasn't what I bargained for, it was what I needed!

Feb 10th, 2017Well rounded blend of primarily Tempranillo with Grenache and mazuelo thrown in. The Grenache adds finesse and a hint of fruit forward sweetness to what is an aged, full bodied Tempranillo. Ripe black cherry, mint, a tad of Asian spice on the palate. Bright red cherry and hint of black fruit on he nose.

Jan 14th, 2017Aromas of dying jasmine and overripe orange give way to a dry, velvety earthen palette touched with white pepper and Forrest floor- medium finish- absolutely wonderful!
