Far be it from me to question the professional reviews, but this is no 91. The '03 and '05 were excellent examples of Rioja and I'm fortunate to have enjoyed them. This '08 is, at this time, not. I will give the rest some time and revisit this in a few years but, at present, I wouldn't even identify this as a Rioja.
