80% Tempranillo, 12% Graciano, 3% Mazuelo and 5% Grenacha of 90-year-old vineyards on a limestone soil, with a boulder surface in “Las Laderas” and more sandy in “Calitrancos”, located in Ollauri. Ferments in stainless, malolactic and subsequent aging in foudre of French oak. Black fruit, red, floral, mineral, toasted, wide, corpulent, fine, complex, with freshness, elegant and long. No Bot 4594 / 4951. Now it’s a good time to enjoy it! — a month ago

Hits the spot. Blind I would guess a cru class Graves. A rioja with freshness is rare. — 6 years ago

It took me 10 minutes to remove the cork but I was able to extract it largely intact…and it was gnarly. Completely saturated. In fact, it oozed the moment I pierced the cork with the worm. A producer I have no previous experience so no context. The color is garnet/orange with all the sediment and opaque as a result. So much earth, mushrooms, teriyaki, toasted coconut, wood, nuts and leather but there is fruit there too! Desiccated red and dark fruits; deep and dark. There’s tannin, still but it all integrated. The acid is a gorgeous girdle. The finish is long, mature and complex. Drink now? But considering it’s lived this long, it will probably continue to last. For how long? Who knows. A lovely surprise.

Reasonable complexity on a relatively open and oxidised base, but a little short. Probably drunk a little to quickly and in the wrong company (the wine, not the people). Perhaps not the best bottle but holding up remarkably well. — 6 years ago
