  Fresh cherries, dried red chilli, cedar, earth and leather on the nose. Elegant and groovy notes. This don’t need to breathe, immediately approachable. Good depth and polished structure with mineral and oak flavours. Medium bodied. Seamless transitions from entry to finish which is clean and long. At its peak now and should last for a few more years. A perfect Rioja to pair with stewed rabbit.

  This followed our Kirkland Signature Rioja Reserva. At about 6 times the price, it should be better. It was, more complex and interesting, but hard to ignore the price difference. The interesting thing was the discussion of what is a hierarchy of wines of the Tempranillo or Tempranillo Blend varieties that really deserve some respect and contemplation. Our bunch of Francophiles needed to experience this, I think.

  In Russian oak barrels. Why note I suppose. More fruit character, more tertiary aromas as well, great acidity, very well and fine tannin, well integrated, its a heck of a wine.

  Green pepper, vanilla, chocolate, long finish, excellent balance. Drinking very well and will probably improve.

  Potente, maduro, 14 grados. Buena fruta y buen trabajo de madera, correcto vino de una añada que me encanta, aun por desarrollar. No es mi estilo de Rioja pero trabajan muy bien, podría repetir en un años.
