"A gorgeous modern expression of the variety, the sweetly expressed bouquet shows raspberry, dark plum, vanilla and floral aromas, followed by a juicy palate that is supple and smooth. Very easy flowing through the palate, finishing long and silky. At its best: now to 2021" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2019

"Rich, flavoursome and accessible red with appealing sweet berry, plum, violet and subtle spicy flavours. A real 'crowd pleaser', especially at this good value price. Silken-smooth and ready for drinking, but no rush - it's sealed with a screwcap" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review

"I tasted this wine blind alongside a couple of extremely well regarded New Zealand wines which cost double the price and was amazed to see this wine unveiled as a modestly priced red from Spain; it's nothing short of an exceptional bargain" Joelle Thomson, Dominion Post

A red specifically designed by local importer and Master of Wine Steve Bennett to introduce Kiwi wine drinkers to the delights of Spanish wine and Spain’s signature grape variety Tempranillo. Sourced from 25-40 year old vines grown in La Mancha and Valdepenas. A full-flavoured, soft, supple, vibrant, plummy red with refreshing acidity and rich but smooth tannins to partner a wide variety of savoury cuisine. With a host of accolades over the past eight vintages, this label is one of the most consistent great value wines on the market.
