Mr Szabo's review is a bit harsh - this wine is a strong 83.75. Drinking this crianza is the wine version of drinking tequila. Only instead of licking the salt off your hand, you're licking the Johnson & Johnson bandaid on your hand. To be serious though, there is some good aroma and a nice fruitiness on the palate, with the wine opening up a bit with some decanting. But it is definitely off kilter. Medium length and a harshness on the finish. Grip it n' drip it. April 2013.
