This is our second bottle of this great Spanish that's 100% Tempranillo. First bottle came from a store we visited with the Olivers and I found one locally at V. Richard's. Rick commented that the best values in reds are coming from Spain right now and I have to agree. "Exhibiting greater fruit, complexity, and elegance than the Garnacha without sacrificing any of its meat or succulence, is the fuller, more rustic, but savory, distinctive, medium to full-bodied 2003 Tempranillo. Floral, blue and black fruit, abundant texture, and a heady finish suggest it should be drunk over the next several years." Robert Parker, Jr., The Wine Advocate
We enjoyed this with smoked beef brisket. $9.99. 3 stars for under $10 is pretty unique.

I saw this at Western Mtn.Brook and the label seemed familiar so I bought it for less than $10. Of course I saw it, it was on our blog. I took it to a family get together and was excellent. Very smooth and easy to drink. It will become a regular in the Wright "got to drink after work" workout.
