Bashful nose, I smell some florals and woodsy stuff. Big flavors! Lush and dark, but light weight in the mouth. Plums, overripe strawberries, cocoa, cedar, licorice, a bit of mint. Lots going on, and a real bargain at $17. Decanter says 95 points. Let's not get crazy!

💯 for the privilige and the scarcity. Incomparable nose of chocolate figs, dates and raisins. Port/sherry notes! On the palate this is very lively, yet quite acidic.
To me, this is more intriguing and interesting than tasty… — a month ago

Splash decanted and enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 2014 “Viña Bosconia” pours a deep garnet/purple with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of Montmorency cherry, dill, toasted coconut, tobacco, leather and dry earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and elegant. Delicious already in its relative youth and there’s a long, bright future ahead. Drink now with patience through 2044. — 2 months ago

2020 vintage. Unspectacular but solid and keeps coming like the antagonist in a horror movie. Can't stop. Won't stop. Medium/medium-heavy body. Fruit and tannin balance currently. Under $20 USD resto cost. 8.12.26. — 3 months ago

2022 vintage. Lean and mean currently with a thoroughly poor attitude and rejecting any and all authority figures. Needs a 2 year boot camp to set/improve on personal goals and to stop displacing. Could see this going 9.2 in 2028/2029. Pretty minimal oak treatment (for Muga) which gives this a fighting chance of future success. Price is nice. Just have to look past the constant insults and wait for that juvenile record to be expunged. 8.5.26. — 3 months ago

Deep ruby colour, dark berries on nose and palate, with integrated tannins and good balance of acidity and fruits.
Nice Rioja in contrast to my usual line up.

The nose is immediately captivating with lush crème de cassis and dark cherries, intertwined with the more reserved, classic aromas of sweet tobacco, leather, and dried herbs, and a whisper of coconut. The palate is full-bodied and intense with powerful core of dark fruits reined in by a backbone of crisp acidity and silky tannins. The sweet oak spices and dark berries on the long finish is of particular satisfying.

It will continue to evolve and reward cellaring for another decade, if not longer. — 2 months ago

I had this a few months ago, and grabbed another because it's very good. Decanter says 94 points, which is too generous, but it's a solid Rioja.
