Good solid Rioja, full bodied and round - however not extremely memorable.

Unfortunately there is quite a big inconsistency between various bottles of the same vintage. The worst are over the hill with dusty flavours, but I must strongly emphasise that the best bottles are exemplary wines.

Tired. Plenty of tertiary mushroom forest floor and resin, some herbal leftovers but almost no fruit or pepper. Acid and tannin structure flabby and overall intensity on the palate weak.
