Winery Review: Dark ruby in color with rich aromas of red fruit and light spices. It is a real knock-out with delicious flavors of dark cherries, blackberries and vanilla all perfectly integrated. The Tempranillo provides wonderful spice and fruit, while the Cabernet Sauvignon gives structure and depth with the beautiful use of oak.
My Review: This wine had a very earthy aroma with some notes of cherries. Upon tasting, it was very tannic which took away from the fruit flavors. There were definitely flavors of oak and some fruit but it was overpowered by the tannins.
I did not have this wine with food.
