Medium ruby in color with pronounced intensity. Aromas include blackberry, black cherry, cranberry, and raspberry, with hints of mint, clove, dark chocolate, leather, tobacco, and earth. Dry, with medium acidity and medium-plus tannins. Balanced and complex with a long finish.

Of all the old Rioja I’ve been drinking this last year this, together with the Marqués de Riscal 1964, stands out the most. A stunning wine with mindblowing complexity. A true joy to drink. The bottle was finished extremely fast. — 5 years ago

This Rioja has been tamed by time. The color on this wine is medium ruby with a colorless to brownish rim. The nose is a rustic bouquet of old dry cedar, leather, and tobacco, with scents of dry dark stone fruits and dark berries. Some tertiary wet earth and damp forest floor scents as well.

The mouthfeel is captivating with oak, smoke and vanilla followed by black cherry, prune, and raisins. This is full bodied, dry, and complex with smoothed out but lingering tannings and soft acidity. Low alcohol with a finish that goes on, and on, and on till the break of dawn. You literally keep tasting everything: the dry fruit, the tannings and the acidity.

Decanted and tasted over a two hour period. Handsdown one of the best Riojas I’ve ever tasted; many thanks to Somm Rodrigo Mares at Roothouse in Guadalajara for the exceptional gift. My only wonder is how this would have tasted in twenty thirty per say. I purchase all the wines I review but do keep in mind wine always tastes best when it's gifted. Cheers to more gifts like this one.
