  October 8, 2014 - Purplish, violet color with fairly substantial bricking. Tertiary aromas of bark, mushroom & burnt leaves. Fruit has faded which is not unexpected in such an old Rioja. Still, has some pleasant characteristics of tobacco, burnt wood & tar. Overall, remains an interesting pour, but one consisting almost entirely of tertiary elements.

  April 10, 2012 - Took to Spanish tasting by Kroger group. Definately showing age--hint of saurkraut. After "breathing" it was smooth, long, black fruit.
