Lush red cherries and raspberries. Plum, fig and prune. Sweet spices and a touch of vanilla and pepper. Medium plus acidity, soft tannins.

Tempranillo with a small amount (3%) of Merlot. Dark fruit, some herbal notes. Fresh, lively, good acidity

Medium ruby color. Aromas of blackberry, black currant and raspberry. Let this one sit open for a few hours and it got a lot better. Lucious red fruit with a black tea finish.
