"The streamlined mouthfeel is augmented by creamy red pepper and black cherry. Old World acidity maintains freshness as oregano, marjoram, and nutmeg season oak and dried roses."

"This wine has aromas of dark plums and forest floor. It is spicy on the palate, with notes of eucalyptus and clove accompanied by flavors of black currant, blackberry, cacao and tobacco leaf. Tenacious tannins hang on into a blackberry-jam finish."

-92 Points, Wine Enthusiast

"Meaty plums, red cherries and black earth with some pepper and spices. This is a juicy, medium-bodied Rioja with bright acidity and a spicy twist on the palate."
