September 13, 2018 - At PNP it had an off/odd component that improved but didn’t completely resolve over several hours.

May 5, 2018 - Cuatro años despues me topo con otra botella de esto. Y joder! sigue ahí, incluso no sé si ha mejorado. Lo decanté y lo acompañé con una fabada. Odiadme.
La madera se va relajando e integrando en el conjunto. Complejidad y frescura. Piel de naranja, violetas, carbón, cerezas en licor, sangre. Todo tamizado por la Rioja más clásica. A beber! -

September 19, 2015 - I was shocked that this wine seemed so cool and elegant, still in the usual red fruits spectrum and seemed unaffected by the heatwave 2003 vintage! The only downside was the slightly unknit medium long finish.
