"Spicy and pleasantly rich in the glass, the 2020 Impulsivo, a varietal Tempranillo, wafts up with an array of sweet spice, blood orange and raspberry. It’s silky, even creamy in feel, with ultra-ripe red fruits complemented by hints of cocoa and peppery inner florals. The 2020 finishes with intensity, quite potent and structured, leaving sweet tannins and a hint of bitter spice to linger."
