  January 5, 2022 - A superb birthday dinner (Amsterdam): How to give a compliment to this wine? As well as the Hill of Grace '92 !
  Noticeable younger in its presentation (showing the 10 years less), deep, dark, concentrated, elegance combined with persistence; a long life ahead.

  July 15, 2016 - Nice wine, had at a wine dinner. Full of red cherry and other lively fruits. Not classic but very food friendly; very much a modern Rioja

  July 15, 2011 - Pop and Pour - Aromas of high toned dried fruit, dark plum, dried cherry, and lavendar and some oak. On the palate medium body, brisk acidity. This wine carries itself very much like a 05 middle-class burgundy. I will not purchase this vintage again.
