Mix of cedar, blackberry and spices on the nose. Very good balance in the mouth, medium body, acidity on point and a very decent finish, in a very good spot now. |

1/31/2024 - cjoetucker@aol.com Likes this wine: 91 pointsDark crimson color, with a lighter rim. Old world funk! Tobacco, currants, graphite, cedar, and a hint of mushroom on the nose. Tastes of blackberries, oak, cassis, currants and sour cherries. This is full bodied, with fine, grainy tannins, flowing smoothly across the palate to a nice, lengthy finish. A nice balance of fruit and acidity, this is sweet and savory. Great QPR. Well done! |

12/31/2023 - Petalito Likes this wine: 90 pointsDecanted for an hour. Deep purple-brown color with high viscosity. Aromas of dried blue fruits, smoke, leather, tobacco, coffee, and cocoa. On the palate, herbal, vegetable, spices, and nut skins. Full body and bone-dry wine with well-integrated tannins and acidity. Great complexity and long finish. Well balance and delightful 23-year-old wine. We paired it with roasted pork leg which really brought the sweetness of the pork and the beauty of the wine. A gem at this price point! |

9/27/2023 - StainedGlass Likes this wine: 93 pointsThis wi e is superb. It is elegant and absolutely in a prime drinking window for a Rioja. I prefer it over the 2004 gran reserva. Urbina is an outstanding producer with Rioja wines that are light yet full bodied, elegant and that age beautifully. And a good value to boot. |

9/20/2023 - Wine Canuck wrote: 93 pointsThis pours medium garnet in the glass with light bricking. The nose is lifted, complex and nicely mature showing cuban cigar, graphite, gravel, ripe strawberry, toasted coconut, dill, rich cedar, dried cherry, shoe polish, nori, and a lovely topnote of grapefruit. The palate is silky and hugely appealing entering on the cherry fruit, turning to grapefruit on the mid-palate and finish. Acid is medium plus and tannin is medium minus, giving this freshness without an imposing structure. The finish is long built on grapefruit with a gravelly minerality. I absolutely loved this wine, almost considering a higher score. It's just massively appealing to drink right now. Appropriately priced at $55 CAD, even a bit of a value to be honest. |
