Country: Spain

Winery review:  #8 World Wine Writers, Best Wines in the World
It is a wine of beautiful appearance, color dress mature and well covered with light shades of cherry development. Its primary aromas of ripe red berry fruits. The palate expands exceptionally ripe and round: warm and fleshy, long, proud finish.

My review: Smoky with some cherry notes and a nice sweetness upon first drinking. Some tannin and interesting light texture. Jammy with lots of black and purple fruit. Perhaps, plum. Clove and nutmeg with other baking spices. Quite nice!
 
I tasted this on its own with no food.
