Primary and fresh. No great complexity or ever likely to have, but with its bright fruit and low tannins very easy to quaff. Hence a Joven or young wine. Not dissimilar in flavour profile to the Massolini Barbera tasted recently. Would accompany many types of food. Opened the bottle with Thai last night and finished with lamb chops today.

Fresh primary and juicy. "Young" colour of dark Crimson with a purple rim. Joven could mean little oak or none - but this has none. Pure Tempranillo fruit. A quality drink now Spanish quaffer. Not for cellaring. 2014 vintage.

Well balanced, fruity and with a nice acidity. Drunk with tomato and roasted pepper stew

Full nose of berry and very smooth for a Ribera. Worked well with steak as not too overpowering

Med body, rich jammy fruit but a little bitter, maybe the bottle was past it's prime
