2018 Tempranillo
Review by Fredric Koeppel @Vinohead
The color is a lovely transparent cherry-magenta hue; a ripe, spicy cherry-berry nose evolves notes of sandalwood and cloves and, after a few minutes, sage and thyme; a lovely, lively, silken, dusty texture feels sanded by slightly gritty tannins, but juicy berry flavors dominate through to a burnished finish heightened by leather, loam and flint-like minerality. Drink through 2022 or ’23 with grilled sausages, leg of lamb, veal chops with green olives. Excellent.
