"Inky purple color. Spicy cherry and blackberry are complicated by scents of graphite, cracked pepper and dried flowers. A hint of vanilla comes up with air and adds sweetness to the nicely concentrated dark berry flavors. The spicy element repeats on the finish, which leaves pepper and sweet berry notes behind." -Josh Raynolds

"The purple-colored 2007 Codice Tinto is 100% Tempranillo aged for six months in tank and six months in French and American barriques. The nose give up a hint of mineral, spice box, and black cherry leading to an easy-going, smooth, spicy wine with good balance and medium length. Drink it over the next three years." -Jay Miller
