2016 No Girls Wines Tempranillo
97 Points
Similarly colored, the 2016 Tempranillo La Paciencia Vineyard offers an exotic bouquet of black cherries, violets, chocolate, tobacco, smoke, and candied orange rind. It’s deep, beautiful, savory, and full-bodied, with a thrilling texture. It’s another incredibly elegant, singular wine from this estate. —Jeb Dunnuck, jebdunnuck.com

…a dusty core of dark fruit on the nose, with blackberry, wild strawberry and hints of soft leather and wet river rock. In the mouth, the wine is medium to full-bodied and shows a subtle spiciness that persists through to the finish, with building and structuring tannins. It ends with a long, mineral finish and lingering tannins that make this wine ready for food… —Anthony Mueller, The Wine Advocate

This has some savory, fresh leather, earth and tobacco character with more flowers than fruits on offer. The palate has an understated core of smoothly sheeted tannin with quite a juicy edge. Wild-herb infusion, blackcurrants and cherries to close. Drink or hold. —James Suckling, jamessuckling.com
