coto de hayas tempranillo-cabernet sauvignon (campo de borja)

點擊次數：1996

Bramble and burning brush on the nose, while the palate is murky as it delivers tomato leaf, baked plum and carob flavors. Seems sort of cooked and funky, with a muddled mouthfeel. The 2005 is a cleaner, more focused wine.——M.S.(10/1/2008)—— 83

For a fresh and fruity wine that tastes real and of the place, we recommend this Tempranillo-Cabernet blend. It is floral and just the slightest bit touched by oak. The palate is sweet, ripe and creamy, with strawberry and raspberry flavors holding on until the last drop. Good value from Campo de Borja, Spain.——M.S.(10/1/2008)—— 86

A touch rubbery up front, with plum and cherry aromas forming a standard, quite acceptable bouquet. Sweet cherry, plum and grape flavors are bright and zesty, and there's a hint of chocolate on the finish. Lacks nuance but is commendable in a straight-ahead kind of way.——M.S.(2/1/2006)—— 84

At 85% Tempranillo, it could be labeled as such. Regardless, look for a bouquet of fat black fruit and touches of earth and smoke. Flavors of plum and blackberry are warm and full, while both the back end and overall impression are positive and lusty.——M.S.(5/1/2004)—— 87
