It's good. Nose was lightly sulfurous on opening but this gave way to hay and loganberry. Taste is good; really quite light for a Rioja. Ripe though. A little tingle and fizz on the palate. Muted pimento. Gardening glove. Delicate cloves.

- Garnet color with medium forming legs. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of tea and coffee with a medium/full body. Bright texture with a medium finish.

Somewhat nondescript and ho-hum. I agree with another taster there's an edge of tomato paste and herbs. I was expecting more from this Dressner offering.

Tomato paste and basil on the nose with deep dark fruit and a base of soil, sadly this is also showing some sulfide issues.

Same wine, new packaging. Like it. Makes me feel like I am about to watch a movie with a man who miss uses the word plethora.
Wow, the graciano really pops on the nose. Lively and fresh on the palate. Savory herbs, really delightful.
