Dark berries on the nose with a little vanilla, which really comes through on the palate. Medium body, soft and balanced tannins and acidity. — 7 months ago
Interesting Rioja blend of Graciano (90%) and Tempranillo (10%). Dark ruby core with a slight garnet rim. Aromas of red cherries, rose petals, leather, mint and dusty earth. Ripe red and black cherry/currant/raspberry fruit on the palate with additional notes of dried herbs (dill), dark chocolate, black olives, coffee and minerals. Touch of vanilla on the bold and lingering finish. Fresh acidity, firm tannins and nicely balanced. Smooth texture, complex and beautifully aged. — a year ago
Deep purple color.
Aromas of blueberry, vanilla, cocoa.
Dry. Flavors of blueberry, blackberry, vanilla, violet, peppercorn. Rich, chewy tannins. Tastes more like an Argentina Malbec.

Fantastic wine 52 years old. Still has red fruit tones with soft tannins and the finish is like velvet — 3 years ago
Even with 9 years of bottle age there’s still a lot of youth in this #rioja #riserva 100% #graciano. Purple/red fruit on the nose, a touch reticent. Active on the palate with lively acidity and tannins continue to build with each sip. So youthful I’m eager to try the 2001 vintage of from this producer that I bought recently. — 3 years ago

Cool label. Classy. James Suckling gives 93 puntos, must be good. Nice color. Deep ruby color. Smells meaty, juicy and dense. Flavors are similar. Plenty of extracted berry stuff. Deep and complex. Plenty of flavor here 10 years later. Has lots of mouthwatering acids. Enjoyable red. Excellent. — 3 years ago

#AgedWineTuesday
Dark ruby in color with wide brick rim.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing red currants, cherries, earth, black coffee, licorice, oak, black tea, tobacco leaf, herbs and light black pepper.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This 63 year old Tempranillo from Rioja is still drinking nicely, although obviously not at its peak.
Soft and elegant with a nice mouthfeel. Nicely balanced and elegant. Tangy and interesting.
Still has enough fruits in it to last another 10 years. Not showing as much complexity as I expected, but it's always nice to try these kind of old wines.
I enjoyed it very much, all by itself.
A blend of Tempranillo and Garnacha. Aged in French oak barrels for 3 years. Recorcked by the winery a few years ago. Only 400 bottles made.
12.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
