This blend of 80% Garnacha, 15% Tempranillo and 5% Mazuelo opens with pretty aromas of fresh cherries and blackberries followed by underlying notes of spices, floral, tobacco and anise all taking shape in the glass. On the palate this is refined with a medium body backed by fine grained tannins and a firm structure leading into the finish. Overall this is a fine effort which should drink nicely over the short term. (Best 2017-2021) - May, 2016 (JD)
