Winery Review:Dark ruby in color with rich aromas of red fruit and light spices. It is a real knock-out with delicious flavors of dark cherries, blackberries and vanilla all perfectly integrated. The Tempranillo provides wonderful spice and fruit, while the Cabernet Sauvignon gives structure and depth with the beautiful use of oak. My review: On the nose, there were scents of plums, blackberries, and cherries. I liked the smells of this wine. The taste of the wine, I sort of enjoyed. It was not great but I, also, am not a huge fan of red wines. I could taste the blackberries/plums and there a presence of tannins. The tannins made the wine bitter and I didn't like that. Plus, there was a dry after taste that was too much for me. This was an ok wine, not my favorite
Food Pairing: None
