Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Blend of 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacha, and the rest Graciano and Mazuelo, deep Ruby, aromas of sweet red and black fruits with pepper spice and oak, aged in both French and American oak for 24 months. On the palate flavors of blackberry and currants with licorice, vanilla, tobacco and toasty oak tones. Soft full ripe tannins, wonderful balance, lively acidity on a long finish ending with an earthy mineral character. Very nice!

I’d like to argue that this price point crushes many domestic Cabernets that are doubled in cost. Deep red and purple fruit on the front palate with a long and consistent finish that compliments a well manicured level of acidity.
