- Made with 100% Tempranillo grapes
- Good balance and medium length
- Amazingly fresh and seductive
87 Points - "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 gives 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." -The Wine Advocate, June 2009. (more info)

Suave raspberry, cherry and boysenberry aromas are spiced up by cinnamon, mace and vanilla. Juicy red and dark berry flavors expand on the palate, betraying no rough edges and gaining depth on the close. A warm baking spice quality lingers on the sappy finish. The fruit here is amazingly fresh and seductive; this drinks like a $30 wine, easily. As usual, a superb value." -International Wine Cellar.
