Deep ruby, inky with slight staining and high viscosity (14% ABV). Aromas of vanilla, baking spices, ripe blackberry, violets, blackcurrant ganache, mocha and blueberry pie. Dry with medium acidity, medium tannins and a full body. Flavors of blackberry, dusty earth, violets, blackcurrant, blueberry and vanilla lead to a medium (+) length finish that has some baking spice warmth. The tannins are delightful and silky. 91 points for this Tempranillo that runs $17 makes it a 5 star wine. Drink till 2030. Salut….
