Shop Review: 89 points - Stephen Tanzer
100% Monastrell, aged in American oak for four months. Bright ruby. Powerful, spicy aromas of dark berry preserves and lavender. Fleshy and round on the palate, offering spicy blackberry and blueberry flavors and gaining sweetness with air. Finishes smooth, long and slightly warm. "

 My Review: This wine wine had some tannic bite to it; it had raspberry taste to it, it was a tiny bit acidic but overall smooth. I did not have this with food, but would like it with a homemade burger off the grill.
