Notes: Only a couple of us liked this. The others could not get beyond that beautiful nose. I think at the cellar door it was $25 (~450).
interesting I do not remember such a strong nose, it was almost typical Spanish tempranillo when tasted there
ReplyDeleteIt's true that the nose was stronger than I remembered as well.
