Notes | |||
"Medium-high depth wine, ruby red colour with roof tile rim, which denotes its long barrel ageing and its peaceful bottle ageing. Powerful on the nose with primary aromas of ripe fruit accompanied by complex spicy and balsamic notes and a slight touch of vanilla. Balanced on the palate, it is a round and unctuous wine with ripe and sweet tannins, providing the wine with a long aftertaste: and elegant Rioja classic." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Very little development in this Reserva Rioja, which still shows primary-fruit character of plums and strawberries on the nose, together with hints of spice and dried orange peel. Medium body with fresh red berries and plums, rounded by silky but fresh tannins. Tempranillo and graciano. Drinkable now, but can hold for at least another 3-4 years." —James Suckling |
