Too Tannic. Big wine, but just tasted a bit off.

I was excited about this wine because I really enjoyed the Crocodillo. However this is a big wine in need of a big meal.

Very different than most of the wines I tend to drink, though I liked it very much. It was very smooth, while still retaining a good flavor.

If I could give it a 3 1/2 I would. Liked the bouquet and the initial tast but didn't love the finish.

It's pretty good, but nothing compared to the Enrique Foster. I think it would have been better with a big steak. Cheese didn't have enough strength for it, nor did it bring out the taste. I'd like to try this again over dinner. 3 stars. --------------------- 6/30/07. Tried it again 4 months later and liked it even more.
