Capa media, Violeta con ribete cereza, en nariz cereza, frutas rojas y madera tostada suave. En boca buena entrada, paso fino y final rico y largo. Buen vino aunque esperaba más...

Nice Rioja that was perfect for our short rib and lamb course. Rioja is always a bit oaky to me, but this one was restrained and tasty.

Tempranillo 100%. Finally the fruit is free to fully express and integrate with alcohol, tannins and very light oak touch. Really awesome! #DWCC #Rioja

Coffee, red cherry, with floral (violet) notes throughout. Hint of black pepper and French vanilla. Nice acidity and well balanced throughout. Silky smooth tannins.

Черноплодка, сухая черника, сжатая фиалка, эрл грей, лакрица, новая кожа, строгие ваниль и корица, щепотка черного перца и земли. Хорошая, напряжённая структура; правильная кислотность; суховатые танины. Компактно, ещё слишком молодо и туго закручено, но при этом гармонично и чисто. Не чрезмерно горячо. На третий день становится заметно сочнее и свежее. Нужно ждать.
