Community Tasting Note

  March 31, 2024 - I never would have guessed this wine was a Rioja if I tasted it blind. Even with a 3-hour decant, it was still a fortress of tannins. Color is very dark, and it's throwing some sediment - but apparently not enough. I could catch glimpses of fruit in the distance, but they were heavily guarded. Otherwise, the oak is well integrated, and the flavors are refined. I wish I had waited 5+ years longer.
  I've rated this vintage a 90 based on my current experience. It could get significantly better, but since it's already had 9 years in bottle, I wonder.
