Saturday, January 14, 2012 - This is a racy, streamlined Rioja, which shows its age with elegance and aplomb. Fragrant nose with dark plums and leather. Not as full-bodied as one might expect (something we liked about it), subtle handling of oak (which we always appreciate), brooding fruit tinged with licorice with a lingering but subtle tobacco finish. The negative, for Chris was that the sour cherry notes were too sour.
