Dark purple body, opaque, thin rim. Nose is a little hot, but also has loads of fruit, Cherry and maybe citrus? Can't tell if there is mint or if that's the alcohol. Oak and leather become stronger sensations over time. Palate has good acidity, understated tannins. But then tannins start to dominate the finish. This wine develops over time and each sip is a little different from the previous one. I'm hooked! — 7 years ago

An absolutely fantastic offerring from Juan and company at Realm. Their merlot-driven cuvee with the rest cab franc, cabernet, and petite verdot, this wine boasts increbile fruit and depth of flavor. Sweet, ripe tannins and a long finish that both suggest many years of life, this is easily the best version of The Tempest that I've ever had (and I've tried every vintage of this wine). Just terrific. — 8 years ago
Great color, full bodied, and unapologetic. Smoke, anise and bark on the nose. Fruit forward, but in a mature and controlled way. Great smoke, spice and brick dust gives it character. Sandy tannins and a great finish. Definitely food wine. — 9 years ago

We had the 2015 Camino de arrieros rufete Jose Juan. It was fruity and a bit lighter than I usually go for, but it was very good. Not sweet at all and had a great flavor to it. — 7 years ago
Maybe one of the best wines I've had. This is perfection. Thank you, Juan! — 7 years ago
Packs a mouthful of flavor. Could use some more mellowness. Gonna finish that last half glass with a smile on my face. — 7 years ago

$20 for this $40 wine is a joke! I feel like I'm stealing. It feels so wrong but tastes so right. Pair with a gamey bolognese and buckle up. I recommend decanting or aerating. Can age 5 more years no sweat. — 8 years ago
Bright fruit. Good acidity and tannin. Long time since I liked a Spanish wine this much. Not sure where it came from. — 8 years ago

Lätt men fullt, liten aning pepprighet i eftersmaken. Riktigt gott! — 8 years ago
Damn Daniel, back at it with the Señor de Lesmos 2010 Crianza! Paired with pan seared redfish and risotto, which was a mistake since I had albariño in the fridge! Still very enjoyable. — 8 years ago
Fresh, nice attack. — 8 years ago
A bit bitey and very complex. Crisp for a red. — 9 years ago
