Decanted and consumed over an hour +.

Deep cranberry to garnet wine, excellent clarity and only a touch of sediment. Initially tight nose of black cherry opened to darker red/black fruits, soft toasty oak, and spice. Bright acidity and warm red fruits on the palate, light-bodied w/some fine, powdery tannins.

100% Temparanillo; 89-91 pts., excellent food wine w/another 4-5 yrs. ahead.
