2012 Vintage. Nose: Moderate Acidity, mild green-stem aroma, oxidative. Taste: Moderate tannin, Moderate spice and fruit notes. Finishes with a mineral note. Taster Notes: Doesn’t drink like a traditional Spanish Tempranillo. Carries a bit of oak on the nose and resembles aroma characteristics of an Italian red but drinks like a South American red. Definitely a fun wine that stands out amongst it’s varietal!
