Inky dark purple/burgundy in color, eight years in the bottle, the edge still shows no sign of brick color! Extremely fragrant, in fact, when our sommelier was decanting the wine for us, you can smell the wine from six feet away, Smell of black cherry, dark fruit, tobacco, cacao, raisin, plum and date. It takes more than 30 min to open up with a decanter, still plenty of leg in this wine left. Taste of red fruit, bacon fat, with chewy tannin. Smooth with velvety finish, full body masculine Tempranillo!
