Critic review: Lightly baked berry aromas vie for attention with leather, spice and mild earth notes, and the result is disjointed On the palate, this is tight as a drum initially, but more expansive as it unfold. Cherry, plum, raspberry, vanilla, and woodspice flavors finish pure, clean and easy. This is a fine yet manageable Rioja that’s not trying too hard. Drink through 2016. – Wine Enthusiast


My review: This wine had strong notes and flavors. Lots of berry on the nose: cherry and plum. On the palate there was good tannin structure. Smooth finish with spicy flavors. I was reminded of cinnamon of a Big Red gum. There was also fruity notes like cherry. I would drink this wine again.
