This wine is fairly dark colored and smells of blackberry fruit and tar. It’s not a very complex nose. The palate brings similar earth tones, very bold and dark, with none of the oak spice that generally finds its way into a red wine. The tannins are rather soft, but there is enough there to make it a decent pairing with a steak. If you have never tasted an unoaked red wine, it’s worth a $20 bill with some change back.

Pretty good Tempranillo, especially for the price. This mellowed out after a few days; I think it's much better after oxygenating a bit!

Great "comfortable" wine. It doesn't try too hard - just delivers a fruit forward easy drinker with an relaxed finish that is organic, sustainable and affordable. What's not to love.

Smooth, versatile medium red that’s sort of getting me through this quarantine right now. You really can’t beat the value of the 1L.
