Brooding. Seems one dimensional atm. I would revisit in a few years.

One of the best I’ve had. Intense dark fruit. Barcelona memories abound!

Very good. Pnp. Black and blue fruits with some savory herbs and vanilla. Great with burgers and hot dogs. Still young and no rush to drink.

"aromas of blackberry drift up from the glass, but wait before taking a sip and you'll find black pepper, coffee, and bourbon as it opens up. This is a complex wine. yet every note and flavor rings pure, like a crisp note expertly played on a finely-tuned piano. The bonus is an earthiness, an expression of the clay soil perhaps, hidden in the harmonics"

Oak’y but smooth Spanish tempranillo. If you can find this hard to find bottle, don’t hesitate. It’s one of the best I’ve ever had.
