Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

This is a very tasty Tempranillo from Arlanza, Spain. Nicely balanced with a soft mouthfeel. Elegant and fruit forward. Tangy and interesting.

Still young, but already showing nice complexity. Feels like a Northern Rhône Syrah, especially on the nose. Interesting stuff.

Needs 3 hours in the decanter to open up, and even better the next day.

This Single Vineyard Tempranillo will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

A good food wine. Spicy and entertaining.
