I am enjoying the beauty out of a Hampton inn paper cup. Debated on taking either 2 bottles or 1 bottle and 2 glasses. Oh well.

Curious blue fruit hidden beneath heavily toasted mid palate and resolution. Cinnamon stick, smoked vanilla.

This is a full-bodied Tempranillo with a lot of character. Masculine, athletic, fresh.

Nice wine though the PQR is quite off I argue. Many wines I d prefer for half the price of this one.

Just okay. Maybe needs more time but never went anywhere. May never be a decent value, especially given the vintage.
