88 Points

Saturday, July 22, 2023 - Fruit and a lot of oak on the nose. Vanilla, oak branch, red currant, red cherries, and black chokeberry. Very nice on the palate: high-ish tannin and body but also medium acidity which makes it very drinkable. Palate confirms the nose and finish is a little bitter with a touch of smoke.
Very justifiable step-up in quality from the Crianza.
8+/18
