14.5% alc. with a blend of 51% Aragonez (Tempranillo), 45% Syrah, 4% Trincadeira, this wine is fantastic! Deep dark red with an incredibly strong bouquet once given a little time to open and show itself. It shows considerable amount of cherry and cassis on the nose with slight aromas of anise and cinnamin. Extremely full bodied, rich and round, with great structure and firm tannins. Really well crafted, showing flavors of red currant, green herbs and vanilla. August 6, 2007 View

The nose on this deep dark red wine is very restrained after opening the bottle, but with time gives way to herbal notes, combined with cassis, cherry, and some earthy coffee bean aromas. Big oak at first that show with vanilla and tannin. I feared that this might just be an oak monster, but with time it really developed into something interesting. Flavors of dark red fruits, chocolate, coffee, and an underlying herbalness, make this wine stand out from it's peers. While a big wine at 14.5% it handles it very well and I would love to see its development in about 4-5 years. August 6, 2007 View
