Tasting - "Opera Prima"


Name: Opera Prima
Variety: 50% Tempranillo, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: La Mancha
Country: Spain
Year:2010
Price: $4.95
Shop/wine critic/winery review: Doesn’t try to hide its warm-climate terroir, with a soft texture framing jammy-sweet black raspberry, cherry, red currant, root beer and sweet tea. Drink now.
Your review: Hands down this was my favorite wine. It was sweet, juicy and easy to drink after all of those very tart and crisp wines. I ended up buying this wine! It smelled wonderfully sweet and I could definitely tell why it was a dessert wine. 
Did not originally have food with the wine. Later tried it with creme brulee and it was quite delicious.
