"This 2010 Tempranillo offers a simple, fresh and bubbly nose of black plum and red cherry. The palate is fresh, well-balanced and supple, caressing, deep in notes felt on the nose, with a completely transparent finish. A superbly crafted wine from start to finish. Drink now through 2016." (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker)
