Deep Ruby color with aromas of black and red fruits with oaky spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry and plum with notes of oak and baking spices. Firm grippy tannins, medium finish ending with fruit and spice. Drink now no aging benefit.

Very reminiscent of a Rioja. Big fruit, vanilla, pickle barrel spice and well integrated tannin.

Boisterous, but well defined with nice clean fruit and a light hand in the cellar.

Haven't had many Albarinos but this left me wanting more. Fruit forward but also well balanced.
