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: The nose of this wine was very powerful with huge notes of plum and cherry.  The palette of this wine provided tastes of blackberry, cherry, and plum.  A very decent wine.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
