Excellent! Opened up very nicely from a decanter. Cigar and smoke were very present as was aged oak. Dark fruit was abound. I really liked this. — 5 days ago

Balanced intensity. Nice spice edge. Tobacco drenched in dark tart cherry and huckleberries ....I think. 😄. I just threw that one in because it was on my mind. We were eating huckleberries on our trails hiking Idaho this weekend. 👍 — 21 days ago

So very interesting. The color is like honey, so it almost looks more like rosé. The nose is like a cross between Riesling and sherry. Mouth is creamy, but still with an acidic bite on the end. Dry, but rich. I’ve never had white Rioja, but it obviously shares longevity with its red cousin, because even at 16 years old this wine feels like a baby. — 13 days ago

Super interesting - and delicious - rosado. Funky and high acid. — 2 days ago

Having had so many Rioja Alta & Lopez over the years, it’s genuinely eye opening to experience an old school Rioja that’s new- & different. How it is hard to qualify—perhaps fair to say it cuts down the middle of those two producers. Fresh, deep, medium bodied—tar, violets, wild blackberries, they’re so integrated nothing stands out but it does play as harmonious. Absolutely enchanting. — 20 days ago
