(95% tempranillo and 5% garnacha): Opaque ruby. High-pitched aromas of red berries and candied rose, with a peppery accent building in the glass. Zesty and sharply focused, offering nervy redcurrant and bitter cherry flavors that gain sweetness and depth with air. In a bright, elegant, almost pinot-like style, finishing with very good clarity and light tannins. Score - 90. (Josh Raynolds, vinousmedia.com, Sept. 2014)
