Spanish Quarter Red has been a wine I have been very interested in, blending together a new comer to Spain Cabernet Sauvignon and the widely known Spanish grape Tempranillo this wine is well worth checking out. I found it at the store for just under $10 and online for cheaper than that. A STEAL!!! That is nice thing about Spanish wines right now, you can find really good ones for cheap do to their economy! Good thing for us wine lovers. The color is deep Ruby almost Purple with a medium+ nose with aromas of floral, mineral, oak, sweet spice and black fruits. On the palate after it has opened up a medium-dry sweetness, medium acidity and tannin with good flavor intensity and with a balanced long finish. Anyone wanting to try a different wine without breaking the bank to do so this is wine to do it with. Pair with soft artisan cheese, bbq'd meats, heavy cream or tomato based pasta dishes with chicken or shrimp.
