Lively nose, fruity, interlaced with tobacco, vanilla, tomato. Juicy and balanced, very good for the price.

Deep ruby color. Aromas dominated by American oak- strong coconut and vanilla with cassis and boysenberry. Dry on the palate with low acid and medium tannins. Full bodied showing high alcohol. Flavors of blackberry & cherry with heavy notes of spice. Thick broad tannins and medium length on finish. Monolithic. Little varietal character.

Dark colour Same well-known aroma of asphaltic, ethanol mixed with roses. Very pleasant on the palate, softie side and quite long Nice surprise at Pitoñi restaurant in Ciudad Real. De color oscuro.

There is fruit there, but mostly overpowered by tobacco, chocolate, vanilla, and burnt oak. Some may like this, but I feel it lacks balance. Not bad though
