Garnet black color. Savory aromas of cranberry, black olives, jamon iberico, roasted marcona almonds, caramelized eggplant, and raisin with an vibrant, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a smooth, complex, medium-long cherry relish, toast, licorice, and orange zest finish with well-integrated, silky tannins and moderate oak flavor. A scrumptious Tempranillo with a great sense of place; a must buy.
