Yes. A dry wine with a good finish. Good value for your buck on a Tempranillo.

Ruby-garnet, medium-light bodied, pleasant black and red berries, a little smoke, grippy tannins. 13% alc, amazing value

Nice dry full body. Nice balance. Mary doesn't like as much.

Classic Spanish label. Reminds of knights. Good color. Black and deep purple plums. Smells like fully ripe plums and wet rocks. Nice flavors with chewy tannin, black cherry and Santa Rosa plum skins. Bright with a nice acid streak. Fairly classic, great red from the plain of Spain. Meets the grade.

Not a good vintage (2021). Past vintages were much better (2016, 2017).

2020 vintage. Previewing a few candidates for cheap chicken, haus juice (granted, about a month late but been busy-lay off me, man!). Good body and concentration for the $4.99 Trader Joe's price. Pretty decent, all things considered. A few more in the haus wine prospect queue but you could, immeasurably, do worse at the $4.99 price tag.

Good dry red, strong tannins, pairs well with red meat, stuffed bell peppers from slavik cousin.

Earthy, with smoke, blackberry, and leather. Too flat and a touch sharp.
