Blend of 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacha, and the rest Graciano and Mazuelo, deep Ruby, aromas of sweet red and black fruits with pepper spice and oak, aged in both French and American oak for 24 months. On the palate flavors of blackberry and currants with licorice, vanilla, tobacco and toasty oak tones. Soft full ripe tannins, wonderful balance, lively acidity on a long finish ending with an earthy mineral character. Very nice! — 5 months ago
One of my faves. The unique iodine taste of a Spanish rioja paired beautifully with the duck. Wow. — 2 months ago
Classic full body, loads of dark fruit, drank very well upon opening and lasted a few days in fridge as well. Amazing value for price. — 4 months ago
3.5. A fine rioja from Muga with a smooth complex blend of fruitiness, minerals and tannins. We enjoyed this wine with our meal - it tastes more expensive than it is. on sale for $17.49. Buy more of this. And a cute label as well. — 5 months ago
Blend of mostly Tempranillo with about equal amounts of Garnacho, Graciano and Manzuelo, deep Ruby with a graceful bouquet of berry fruits, cigar box spice with fresh earthy tones, a traditional Rioja, still reticent. On the silky smooth palate, elegant with layers of flavors of ripe blackberry and cherry, tobacco, smoky cedar, dark fruit, vanilla spice, very well balanced with fine soft tannins and a clean structure ending with a nice long chalky earthy character. Delicious! — 2 months ago

Medium ruby hue. Aromas and flavors of bell pepper, blackcurrant, cassis, and tar. Plus body, tannins, and acid. Sampled from a magnum, so it may still taste and feel a bit tight and rough around the edges, and notes may differ from a 750ml sample from the same vintage. 85% Tempranillo, 15% Mazuelo. — 21 days ago
