Winery review: 87 points, Robert Parker: The 2007 Ebano 6 is 100% Tempranillo aged 4 months in French oak. Dark ruby red in color, it displays a pleasant bouquet of cedar, spice box, violets, black cherry, and blackberry. Medium- to full-bodied on the palate with savory flavors and plenty of spice, this racy, vibrant Tempranillo has enough structure to drink well over the next 5-6 years and is a very good value.
My review: Could only detect a creamy scent -- nothing else stood out. Very tannic and dry. Also tasted oaky and had berry elements to it.
I tasted this on its own without food.
