2005 Olaia $11.99


This is a great blend of Tempranillo, Prieto Picudo, and Merlot. Deep purple with a blood red rim. Huge amounts of smoke with little metal flakes on the nose. Soft or over-ripe red fruit with hints of bacon fat on the side. Black fruit and bold spices are loaded in this Spanish beauty. I believe Parker gave it 89 points which is pretty damn good for a $12 bottle of grape juice. Good vino!
