It has smooth vanilla notes, rich black cherry fruit and subtle hints of leather, balsamic and spice.

Textbook Rioja style, fully matured. $13 Grand Reserva, what a steal. More beautiful on day 3.

Pretty modest wine. Lots of acidity, not much body. Needed oily food to be palatable. Not the best example of Spanish Tempranillo.

Drank at Steph's Very nice pleasant Tempranillo. Smooth taste with a nice rich complexity.

Bright ruby with a brick edge. The nose is dark, jammy fruit and no secondary aromas. The taste is blackcurrant, pleasant but unexciting. Drinkable but would not buy with my own money!
