• 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.
