Lovely value wine. Great nose of honeysuckle and ginger, reminds me of a bit of Lacrima di Morro d'Alba or varietal Touriga, very perfumey/exotic. Nicely balanced palate, enough tannins to be vinous, but otherwise quite easy drinking and fresh, mixing red fruits with inner aromas that mirror the bouquet.
Not layered in structure to age, a bit linear, drink now for the delicious primary character.

2nd bottle, and I definitely am warming up to this 100% Graciano wine from southwestern Spain. Medium-bodied, energetic and bright. At the LB price, this is one I’d buy again.

Straightforward, fruit-forward Graciano wine from southwestern Spain. Interesting cherry-infused flavor profile; decent QPR for everyday drinking; went well with Spanish “judiones” stew.

Violets and perfume on the nose. Medium plus body. Sour cherries. Cedar. Firm tannins. Great QPR at $12.
