Wine Spectator
"This firm red is reserved, but shows depth and integration, with flavors of warm plum, licorice , mineral and smoky notes that mingle with well-integrated tannins, giving way to a juicy finish. Drink through 2022. (Wine Spectator - Dec. 2014). A generous Spanish red, elegant on the palate, with a fruity, balanced and well-structured character... An ideal companion for Iberian charcuterie and an excellent bargain!

Pleasant balance in this fairly concentrated wine. The length remains a little short.

Note and review by M. PASCAL P. Published on 12/04/2015
A beautiful garnet-red color, opens with a nose of red fruit and black cherry. Well-balanced on the palate, no tannins, fruit persists and raspberry notes emerge. Little or no Spanish typicity. If you're looking for a full-bodied, powerful wine, don't bother. The 14° announced on the label is surprising. In conclusion: a fine wine, and irreproachable value for money! I'll be back for sure!
