Perhaps, this is one of the most approachable vintages (2016) for this wine. A very clean, an uplifting red, it also has an enticing ruby color transitioning to maroon. Amps up on the nose with a solid complexity and elegancy. Since this is Grand Reserva, it spends a minimum of 24 months on American and French oak. I can be fruity and with some spicy notes. On the palate, it’s elegant, hints of vanilla and sweet toasted. Elongated and silky finish. Already cruising its peak time. Drink now! — 2 months ago

Another solid vintage of this entry level Rioja. Blend of Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo. Dark ruby color with purple highlights. Aromas and flavors of black berry/plum/raspberry fruit, leather, cedar, tobacco, baking spices and vanilla. Touch of toasty oak on the long and savory finish. Nicely structured and elegant. Fresh acidity. Appreciate the taste, Chris B! — 3 months ago
