2012 Vintage. Will cellar these longer as there was a bit of tannin attacking teeth that should dissipate with age. Even so, wow wine.

Better than I remember! Blackberries, raspberry, mild spices, savory elements full feel and acidity. Great balance, with a light kiss of oak.

A little bit rustic with the heavy tempranillo which adds a nice level of complexity. The petit verdot really shows at this stage too. Fruit forward Paso style, but yet the alcohol is in check at below 14%. Very interesting wine.

2012 Vintage. 13.8% Alcohol. Not a PNP as it started out with a strange menthol and herbaceous bouquet. Let sit and absorb oxygen for a half hour and that all dissipated. Not a big fruit bomb, but still enjoyable and certainly an unusual blend.
