This is a new one from Ce Soir. From what I can find out, this is a Jacques Lurton wine from Castilla y Leon, actually in the DO Rueda but the DO is for white wines only at this stage. All tempranillo with a dunk in french oak for 3 months.

The nose is a bit smokey with candied fruit plum, cherry and sweet anise. Warming and rustic is stature, but well integrated in nature. Fleshy, dusty tannins. Palate shows darker fruit with licorice  herbs. As with all the wines I’ve tried from Ce Soir to date,  a tidy package at a great price. 88 Pts.
