Wine Critic Review: "75% Grenache, 25% Tempranillo. Aged 3 months in American Oak
casks. Ruby red in color, with creamy aromas of earth and cherry. Flavor turns toward deeper and darker black cherry and raspberry on a medium framework. A subtle earthiness underneath the bright fruit adds some depth and complexity."
My Review: The smell of the wine was very intense, very oaky, with dark berries and cherry was heavily present here. The flavor of the wine was explosive, I definitely could taste the presence of dark berries and cherry. The aftertaste of the wine which consisted of some spice was really good and lingering. To me this was a full bodied wine and was my favorite red wine that I tried during the tasting at the Vintage Cellar.
This wine was not tried with food.
