This is the type of wine that is unlikely to wow anybody in a tasting, but it is the kind of wine that provides immense drinking pleasure when you have the time to sit down and spend some quality time with it. It is highly aromatic, with classic Rioja scents of wood, vanilla, and balsamic. In the mouth it is soft and lush, velvety smooth, juicy acidity, and has wonderful balance. Not a hard edge to be found anywhere, with very soft tannins that might fool you into thinking the wine may not last much longer. But experience says this should drink well for many more years.
