Another strong year - Bold but balanced with mouthwatering acidity and lingering pleasant finish. Oaky and smoky.

Complex and slightly heavy and leans to the dry end with a subtle but lingering finish. Very nice Tempranillo.

Part of the “moving so drink random wine” show... bought at the estate. On the nose, smoky, leathery red fruit. In the mouth, bloody, leathery red fruit/cherries, bright acid, some integrated oak with medium finish. Fairly classic Tempranillo.
