First couple sips seemed a little funky on the finish but it blew off. Good but not great. Very big and bold for a Rioja.

Medium bodied and good freshness, crushed fresh red and black fruit with good persistence and good structure.
Predicador spends only 3-4 months in bottle before release. 90k bottles of production which is more than usual in 2013 because they used most of of the production because of poor vintage conditions and did not make anything above the Cueva wine.
96% Tempranillo, 2% grenacha, 1% each Mazuelo & Gracias, 12 mos used oak barrel aging

Nariz floral con notas cítricas. En boca es suave pero también complejo al final. Está bien, pero no se si justifica su precio (19€ en Carrefour)

El mejor Rioja desde hace muchísimo tiempo, algo diferente. 16 meses de crianza.
