Comando G El Tamboril Tinto 2016 Review

Comfy smells of dark chocolate and cherry liqueur with a waft of herbs welcome your nose and brain to this wine. The tannins are just now beginning to soften showing a nice medium weighted mouthfeel. The palate will make you stop mid-switch and be like, damn. It is such a well-balanced wine. The fruit is on level with the tannins, which is all on level with active acidity lifting the wine into rustic elegance.
