Love it. Though big, bold, and high al at 14.5%, a great example of a rioja w some age. Prob could age much longer. Very tart fruit. Fruit better defined day one vs day two. For $40, definitely worth it. Why ever drink a 2yr old CA cab and pay $100+??!! — 24 days ago

Same restaurant…same wine…haven’t found a better bottle at 19€ from a restaurant wine list in the area. They just serve their red bottles too cold. At Venta La Choza restaurant. — 2 years ago

2012 vintage. Smooth throughout with a big cherry component. Not exciting but well made. Woodsy on the nose and on the finish. May just be transitioning. — 3 years ago

Plum, cocoa, raspberry, and subtle dust on the nose. Rich, yet dry. Notes of cocoa powder, ash, dried raspberry, unsweet dark chocolate, blackberry, subtle cranberry, tar, & earth. Medium body & tannins. Beautiful balance of fruit & wooly dryness; alcohol hides well; pairs wonderfully with food. — 2 months ago

I pick up a lot of herbal influence along with some terrific strawberry and cherry aromas. The fruit plays large on the palate, too. There is a hint of pepper in the sip. Acidity is fresh, nearly ripping, and the finish is all about the red fruit — 5 years ago
