The 2007 Limited Edition is 100% Tempranillo that spent 15 months in French oak. Purple-colored it reveals an aromatic array of pencil lead, violets, black cherry, and blackberry. Made in a more modern style than the preceding wines, it has ample sweet fruit, good depth, and a medium-long finish. It is a good value that will offer pleasure for another 6 years. Importer: W.J.

Dusty, slightly candied aromas are briary and pretty good, and overall it’s giving freshness, pop and red-fruit flavors touched up by dill, nutmeg and vanilla. Clean and lively on the finish, and more than competent as a whole. ——M.S.(12/15/2010)—— 87
