A very good Rioja, which was a pleasant surprise. Notes of prunes, sweet berries and black olives swirl in the glass. The palette is glossy, with polished tannins and very bright acidity. Finishes sweet, with a long tail. Excellent value for a $15 wine.

Somewhat average, soft, sweet, fruity & non-descript. Dries up a bit on the end to let some oak character come through but mostly un memorable.

Notes of cassis and black cherry. Oaky finished but not too dry. Smooth and fruity.

Sweet tea leaf, dusty rose, and ripe cherries on the nose. Fruit forward, but not too overpowering. This is an easy drinking and inexpensive table wine. It is a good deal..

Lighter than I expected. Quite fruity, but dry on the finish. Caramel too.
