I love a good tempranillo wine. And I think the influence from the cask shines through here on the nose and palate, but fades a bit for me on the finish. Good stuff nonetheless!

Palate
Like a spiced fruit dessert - but not too sweet. Some maltiness comes through as it goes down.

Pleasant and warming, though the specific flavors are more subtle to me.

Nearly perfect. A must-try if you can find it and have the means to get it.

Everyday stuff. It's definitely good, but not quite great. Well worth having on your shelf.

It's fine. We wouldn't seek it out, but if offered a dram we wouldn't turn it down.

Meh. It's not to our liking, but we could see how others might enjoy it.

It's bad. There's maybe one "ok" quality to it, but not enough to offset everything else.

Undrinkable. Something went very wrong here. Pass us the Malort instead.
