Vintage Cellar Review: Dark ruby in color with rich aromas of red fruit and light spices. It is a real knock-out with delicious flavors of dark cherries, blackberries and vanilla all perfectly integrated. The Tempranillo provides wonderful spice and fruit, while the Cabernet Sauvignon gives structure and depth with the beautiful use of oak.

My Review: I did not enjoy this wine.  The nose has hints of Vanilla.  The initial taste is light and berries.  The sweetness and alcohol heat are well balanced.  It has a light body and very little tannins.  I did not taste this with food.
