Deep Ruby red color and full bodied with a nice smooth rounded mouth feel. Red cherry and oak notes leading to a short peppery lightly tannic finish. Delicious, easy drinking uncomplicated wine with some nice age on it. Very good value.

Classic Rioja. This one is smoother than most of the more earthy ones. Love it. Wine Spectator's 93 points well deserved, and at 16 bucks, what an outstanding value!

Overly fruity and sweet oak for my taste, but should be a crowd pleaser.

PnP’d. Better than the last bottle, but unless you can go back in time 5yrs, this one is done.

Not good. Either too old, a bad bottle, or bad wine. I’ll say a combo of all three.

More translucent violet. Fruity aromas. Lighter body and minimal aftertaste.

I agree with Zach and others this is NOT a classic Rioja. Slightly oxidized. Dried prune plums mostly. I guess Just OK.

Light cherries and oak. Full body and a little fruit forward. Acidic, tart finish that seemed a bit of out place.

Quite sub par. Not a great deal from Costco
