Excellent value Reserva in a great place. Loads of red and black fruit, cherries and plums soaked in vanilla. Touch of wet tobacco. Great now but can handle another 4-6 years of cellaring.

Crisp start kind of like cranberry then a nice licorice oaken finish... Unique!

After 9 years its subtle and mature but with super fine tannins. Spicy cherry, vanilla, herbs an spice. I loved it. Amazing value.

Roasted plum, dates, red/black cherry, subtle vanilla with cinnamon, clove with earthy, dusty note. Medium to medium plus body, medium plus tannin. Smooth and velvety. Medium plus acidity.

Темпранильо, гарнача, грасиано и масуэло. В аромате олдскул, но нота оксидации резковата, среднетелое, с шероховатыми танинами

Cant beat this for the price. Developing notes of sweet tobacco along with classic vanilla soaked black cherry. Mocha and vanilla bean flavors after an hour open. Sturdy tannin too.

Juicy Rioja. Lots of ripe Berry fruit on the palate with nuanced toast and vanilla. Definitely the most fruit driven wine I've experienced from this producer.
