88 Points | International Wine Cellar , January 2012

(all grenache, made from a solera that was started in 1999; 50% of the blend is from the most recent vintage, in this case 2010):  Bright purple.  Precise, aromatic nose of cassis, cherry and lavender.  Tightly wound on the palate, with a firm mineral spine giving clarity and lift to the dark berry and bitter cherry flavors.  Finishes with gentle tannins and good focus.  Quite grown-up for an entry-level wine; I've been seeing quite a bit of this wine in restaurants around the country lately.
