A little disjointed but showing a lot better than the Arcilla did a few months ago, and I'm thinking a few months more ought to knit these together nicely. Gushing with warm dark fruit but also has plenty of crackle and crunch on account of a green-apple sort of acidity that's very unusual to experience in a red wine. The Jose Pastor web site says this is from one of the highest elevation sites in the zone at 1,000 meters so that crackling texture makes perfect sense. It also has 15% Albillo (a white grape) and yet the complexion feels darker and the fruit more voluptuous than the 100% tempranillo Arcilla. — 9 years ago

Enchanting! Or is it because we know it's from the Canary Islands? Think Etna ( volcanic) softer spoken. Mineral Core w black cherries & herbs. Light frame. Eye opener. Plus cool bottle-no front label, has a pour spout, & less than 20$. Jose Pastor import — 10 years ago
