Natalie's Score: 91/100

This Spanish red wine is made from the country's leading red grape, 100% Tempranillo. The wine was aged in both French and American oak barrels that combine these 2 wood types in the same barrel made especially for the winery for 12 months. A full-bodied Spanish red wine with notes of dried herbs, tanned leather, cigar box and smoke. Smooth texture with a good finish. Pair with a rare steak. Lots of structure. Pair with hard cheeses and duck or game dishes. This is the magnum size format equivalent to two regular sized bottles

Tempranillo food pairings: rare roast beef, lamb chops, smoked cheese, pan-seared venison.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
