Dark purple robe with long legs. Spicy nose of oak, cherries and plumbs. Savoury and spicy attack with plumbs and cherries with a smoky taste. Spicy medium finish.

Nice note of mixed red and black fruit. Contemporary style with fresh acidity balanced by medium-to-full bodied and firm tannin. Good finish

Nothing too exciting. Typical Rioja. Freshness of fruit lost under too much oak.
