Just a flagship Rioja for me, after several failed Riojas, finally hit the spot with this. Just on point with the fruit, oak and tannins. Balanced, robust, imposing and elegant to top it of. Cheers.

Classy & aromatic with savoury dark cherry over sweet spice, throw in some cedar box, licorice, vanilla, dried black berries. Yet all this is super fresh and enticing. On the palate this is smooth, layered & stylish. Brilliant acidity cuts through the plush, pure fruit and the chewy yet juicy tannins. Great length. This definitely has a wow factor! An amazing wine.

Spectacular wine. Fruit forward with the same balance you expect from GR. Dark and red fruits, dill and vanilla, super vibrant on the nose, well structured on the palate. Another one...

Beautiful Rioja with a sweet character and some unusual flavors. The Graciano mixed in gives this Rioja a unique flavor. It has a great nose having a sweet cherry character. A great value.
