HUD, FV, had the 2018. Extremely dry. Quaffable but as previous notes on 2017 say, go w Riserva next time

Enjoyed this one. Pretty typical crianza. Hints of fruit and a nice lightly tannic finish. Not a lot of time in wood so it didn’t have a rich depth too it but I enjoyed it none the less. Would definitely buy again.

Rhonda likes but it is a bit thin. Good with chicken. Buy a bottle or two.

Plum and young grape skin nose. Sweet perfumed. Blackberry jam and sweet hint of musky grape juice, up front short finish, dry. Good wine.

2016 vintage in April 2021. Decent Rioja for a crianza.
