  I agree with other reviewers, extremely bitter after taste. There is a difference between tannins and bitterness, the bitterness over powers anything else this wine has to offer for me. I decanted and gave the wine over 1 hour and it did not improve one bit. A disappointing way to spend $40

  The wine is as described by other cellar trackers. I would only add that I think this hasn't really hit its drinking window yet. It was definitely coming out of its shell after two hours but by then it was almost gone... I'll check in again in a couple of years.

  We brought this (and another bottle, Pesquera Crianza 2004) to friends who had made a Spanish lamb stew for dinner. The Vitoriana drank beautifully; smooth dark red fruit, an undertone of savoriness and minerality that was simultaneously graceful and inviting.
