Bright cherry color with some violet nuances. In the nose, red berries aromas remain over the oaky and balsamic notes from its ageing in wood. It shows an elegance in the mouth, yet very lively, with some spice back notes and a very balanced acidity.
Blend: 85% Tempranillo, 15% Garnacha Tinta and Mazuelo
2012 Vintage Scores:
“Cherry and vanilla flavors mingle with leafy and spicy details in this round red. Orange peel acidity, cedar and tobacco notes give this a traditional accent. Drink now through 2025.”
Wine Spectator: 91 Points
Staff Review:
Rich red with dark fruit flavors up front, giving way to nice tannins and that old world flavor. Awesome for cooler weather. Try with a nice steak! -Nick
