Notes | |||
"Crafted from a selection of the best Tempranillo grapes in Rioja, this Reserva benefits from 18 months of aging in oak casks that provides great complexity with pronounced notes of ripe fruit, cocoa and well-balanced acidity. A great choice to pair with beef and other hearty meat dishes." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"A fresh, rather zesty red with berry and orange-peel aromas and flavors. Hints of chocolate. Medium body. Nice tannins. Tangy acidity. Tempranillo. Drink now." —James Suckling "An elegant red, featuring orange peel acidity that acts as a lightly juicy frame for the silky weave of macerated cherry flavors, with a spiced thread of anise and milled white pepper and notes of cured tobacco. Shows light, fine tannins and a touch of loamy earth on the finish. Drink now through 2027. 100,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported." —Wine Spectator |
