- Shoppe Review: 100% Tempranillo. Ripe cherry and blackcurrant on the nose and in the mouth. Pliant and seamless in texture, with good heft and back-end energy. Finishes smooth and sweet, with fine-grained tannins providing shape and grip.
Still on the young side but this wine drinks very well with an hour or so of decanting; it's an excellent value for Rioja.
- Myye Review: The nose of this wine definitely reminded me of raspberries, I love raspberries, probably definitely my favorite kind of berry hands down. So you could probably guess that I was pretty excited for this wine. I swirled the delicate wine in my mouth coating every surface with the delightful flavors of the dark red wine. There were light tannins, black cherries, and a mild sweetness. It was very good but I am cheap as hell, so you know I didn't buy this one as much as I may have wanted to.
- OMG you know what I have been forgetting???? The food part of my blog@!!!
