"(85% Tempranillo, 10% Mazuelo and 5% Graciano) Opaque ruby. Complex nose offers blackcurrant, dried rose, anise and pungent fresh herbs. At once suave and firm, with deep, medicinal cherry and dark berry flavors and a restrained sweetness. Solid and serious Rioja, with excellent finishing clarity and lingering notes of bitter cherry and candied rose. Give this some air, or cellar time."
