Madera, Central Valley, California, USA
Purple in color with a wide purple rim and medium plus intensity.
Fruity on the nose with cherries, black currants, black plums, light wood, earth, licorice, herbs, black pepper, tobacco, dark chocolates and coffee.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity and nice legs.
Dry on the palate with cherries, blueberries, wood, cloves, vanilla, spices, espresso, tobacco, spices, chocolates, graphite and peppercorn.
Medium finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a nice surprise. This is a very enjoyable red wine from California. Tempranillo is not my usual drinker, but this is really easy drinking and fruit forward.
Showing mild complexity and spicy with a nice mouthfeel. Low in alcohol and dangerously easy drinking.
I gave it a light chill and had it all by itself by the pool. Later i had it with some Camembert cheese and it was delicious. Let's just say i finished the whole bottle by myself 😃
A good everyday wine. This 4 year old Tempranillo is peaking now. Very tasty.
100% Tempranillo grapes were aged for 14 months in French oak barrels. Unfined and unfiltered.
12.5% alcohol by volume.
88 points.
$26.

Good young Tempranillo. Let it age another year and you're in good shape.
