91/100
Robert Parker
"Berola 2010 is a blend of Grenache and Syrah aged in a combination of American and French oak barrels. It then spends a year in bottle before being released. A revelation of the vintage, it reveals a dark ruby/purple color with aromas of blackberry, black cherry, licorice and lavender. Full-bodied, rich, beautifully textured and impressively pure, it can be enjoyed over the next 3-4 years." (Wine Advocate Nov. 2013 - Robert Parker)

extracted, powerful, full-bodied, a very good Spanish/Southern wine, but 15° is too much.
