Ruby red with aromas of rich red fruits, sweet spice, smoke and cedar notes. On the palate flavors of raspberry, blackberry and currants with vanilla, tobacco, spice and licorice. Fine chewy tannins, long finish ending with fruit, sweet spice and toasty oak character. Nice, ok now but more time is better!

2016- Real de Asua - CVNE. Stored at 55 degrees for six months, decanted for one hour, and served at 65 degrees. I do prefer 62 but I missed the mark. Ha ha. The bouquet is a perfume of lavender and vanilla. The palate begins with a smooth silky raspberry delight. It is very light on the tongue, yet opaque in the glass. The legs last forever! The palate develops into a tart, earthy, and smokey finish that drys out the lips and tongue. There is an after taste of graphite and slate as the lips begin to pucker!! Where’s my water??????

Great aromas and flavors, wish the finish was longer. Good tannins, definitely a good dinner wine!
