2008 Quinta de la Quietud Corral de Campanas Toro "Deep ruby-red. Slightly reduced nose offers black fruits, licorice, smoked meat, leather, tar, cedar and spice cake. Wild, densely packed and concentrated, with a distinctly exotic character to its expansive, creamy-sweet flavors of sweet berry fruit, wild herbs and spice cake. Finishes long and gripping, with broad tannins and a subtle suggestion of earth. A lot of red wine for the price.” 90 points – Stephen Tanzer
