This modern-style red is supple but shows underlying structure. Blackberry, floral, toast, mineral and smoke flavors show depth and complexity. Drink now through 2014. 1,000 cases imported. -TM

Stunning concentration of really powerful black fruit, chocolate and oak. Everything you would expect from a Tempranillo.

Not on a par with the inaugural 2007, but for a rough year this wine brings about as much as it can. The nose is woody, deep, balsamic and herbal, while the body is thick and saturated, with roasted berry, coffee and bitter chocolate flavors. The finish lacks length and character, but it has heft and feel. A commendable effort for a poor vintage. ——M.S.(2/1/2011)—— 89
