Tasting - Senda 66 Tempranillo

Name: Senda 66 Tempranillo
Variety: Tempranillo
Country: Spain
Region: La Mancha
Year: 2008
Price: $8.95

Winery Review:
90 Points, Robert Parker

The 2008 Senda 66 spent 8 months in new French oak. Purple/black in color, it sports a fragrant nose of spice box, lavender, blueberry, and blackberry. Smooth-textured, layered, and remarkably rich on the palate for its humble price, this lengthy effort will drink nicely over the next 5-6 years.

My Review: 
This wine smelled of strawberries and cherries and flowers.  It had a sort of tropical taste to it, it was very sweet.

I tasted this alone without food.
