Aromas of black fruits, smoke, vanilla and dark chocolate. Flavors confer with savory, meaty tannins and a medium long finish. Minerality comes in as wet earth or clay pot. Medium plus acidity, super food friendly. Amazing for the price!

Capa y densidad alta, en nariz vainilla, naranja alcohólica, ahumado y balsámico. En boca buena entrada potencia peso y secante... Final muy goloso y largo

Add this in early 2021 and it was fabulous. Beautifully mature, all kinds of darks and a nice light mount feel. Extraordinarily smooth going down and wonderful with dinner.

Val is our go to wine! We are never disappointed. We’ve been drinking the 2015 and are moving to the 2016. Love them both. It’s great to have wine that you can enjoy consistently.

Really liked this compared to most Tempranillo. High in acid, a bit more Italian in nature.
