Made from a thicker-skinned variety of Tempranillo indigenous to the La Mancha region, called Cencibel. A garnet color with a ruby rim. Clean and bright. Deep aromas of black fruits mingling with notes of licorice. Sweet vanilla hints come through with notes of roasted coffee beans, brought by the wine’s stay in American oak barrels. Fruity on the entry to the palate with black fruits coming to the fore followed by notes of roasted coffee beans and licorice. Good volume on the palate underpinned by sufficient tannins and acidity to give the palate power and good length of flavor. Great with soups or pulses as well as game, such as hare or rabbit. 90 Points, Robert Parker
