Spanish Wines

It was one of the selections from our international wine club, and hopefully, they have some more because we'd like to get a few more bottles.
Fingers crossed!
On the winery's web site they describe this as follows:
Cabernet Sauvignon and Tempranillo are the grapes that bestow their nobility on Gran Coronas, a wine of a deep red hue, with ochre and brick-red touches from its ageing.
Wine and Food
Excellent with any meat dish, from the simplest grilled steak to the finest game.
Tasting Notes
The rich, sensual aroma is typical of the grape varieties recalling small red and black berries (cherries and blackcurrants), green coffee beans, liquorice and the characteristic vanilla and leather notes from ageing. On the palate the wine is full and silky with dense, well-structured tannins.
Awards

What stood out to us when tasting this wine was how smooth it was. Amazing!
