"A touch of black beans to the black cherries, dark plums, spice box and tobacco. Flavorful and nicely chewy on the palate, with a medium to full body and a flavorful finish. Shows nice length and generous fruit in the finish. 65% merlot, 25% cabernet franc and 10% cabernet sauvignon. Drink or hold."

"This wine is quite intriguing, with good depth of merlot character. Aromas of paprika, ripe plums, black olives and ashtray. Touches of oranges and tar deliver savoriness. On the palate this is naturally rendered, with composed natural acidity and firm tannins. 78% merlot and 22% cabernet sauvignon. Drink or hold."

"The 2022 Cenizas de Laberinto Mezcla Tinta combines 78% Merlot and 22% Cabernet Sauvignon, fermented in concrete and aged for 12 months in 400-liter barrels. Deep, pure aromas of black fruits, dark chocolate and fresh herbs introduce a beautifully lacy, precise and tensile palate. It closes with a luscious finish framed by focused tannins, striking a perfect midpoint between rich and energetic."
