Drank 4/26/18 at a tasting event.
Nose of plums, dark fruits,and sweet tobacco notes.
Juicy black fruits, with plums and blackberry mixes with earth, leather, and tobacco. Well integrated, medium tannins. Very nice. Open now, but should age nicely for several years as well.

Nose is aromatic with orange blossom and a slight hint of tomato leaf. Not quite as briny as Albariño but crisp and refreshing — 10 years ago

Jackpot. Super Tuscan for the win, finally found one hubby likes. Wine shop in Montepulciano, Italy | Dec 22, 1017 — 8 years ago
Recommended by Mazzaros at $22. Said will bLow away similar priced Bordeaux or Napa cabs. Super Tuscany blend of 48% Merlot then Cab Franc and Cab Sauv with a little petit Verdot. Said goes great w steak need to air before drinking. Each glass better than last as it opens up. — 9 years ago
Big and tannic. Great depth due to a lengthy time in French oak (22 months) + another few in the bottle. Nice with Manchego. — 10 years ago
30% cabernet 70% Monastrell/Mourvedre grapes. 22-36 months in french and American Oak. New style Spanish wine similar to a California Cabernet. I would put this wine up next to Caymus in a blind test. — 10 years ago
