Dark and peppery, seemed like a Cab or merlot, maybe CF. This varietal is not grown in the US.

Capa y densidad alta, en nariz potencia media, frutas rojas, regaliz negro, y frutos secos. En boca buena entrada, goloso redondo y con un final vivo y con secante. Buen Mencia...

Aging gracefully. Aromas of Forrest Floor, currants, vanilla and leather. Pallet is full of black currant fruit with hints of dark chocolate and eucalyptus. Medium acidity. Long and tannic finish. Highly concentrated. Thank You Ron B!

Deep ruby color. Medium body. Sweet nose but actually very dry. It might be odd, it finishes a bit like a Pinot with freshness and earthy tone.
