The color has faded to a translucent garnet with tawny colored rim. It has developed a complex bouquet of red cherry, dried fig, old leather, and tobacco as well as some barnyardy notes from Brett. This is one of my favorite producers in Rioja but I would prefer to consume this younger as although there is some nice fruit and acid, the tannins have really faded leaving little grip or bite. Classic blend of 75% Tempranillo, 15% Garnacha, 5% Graciano, and 5% Mazuelo. — 9 years ago

Wow what a great Tempranillo we just finished at Casalax in Zaragoza, Spain.

Only 31 Euros in Restaurant and was awesome.

Definitely a buy if you can find it. — 10 years ago

темное, темно -вишневый сок. аромат - сладкая вишня, легкая терпкость, слабый миндаль. вкус - довольно высокая кислотность, не очень гармонично поначалу - требует мяса. мало фруктовых нот, очень округлое и аккуратное на финише. интересно — 10 years ago
