"Burnt sienna color. Aromas and flavors of dried red cherry and figs, cedar shavings, black plum, and cigar box with a velvety, vibrant, dry medium body and a warming, interesting, medium-long finish that shows notes of blackberry, plum and fig, cigar box, and cocoa nib with chalky, dusty, well-integrated tannins and a suggestion of oak flavor. A textbook example of Tempranillo carrying dark fruit flavors balanced with savory herbs and spice; nailed it."
