Reflecting a cool, rainy vintage, this smells gritty, without a lot of ripeness. The fact that it's racy and drawing on the palate follows suit. Flavors of cherry and plum are subdued, while the finish is spicy in flavor and dry and prickly in feel.

Woody, earthy berry aromas are more elegant than overpowering. This crianza feels fresh, albeit a touch raw and scratchy. Earthy, lightly oaked flavors of vanilla, plum and cherry finish dry, spicy and with scrappy tannins.
