  A lucky find at a random bottle store. Probably should have drunk this right away but cellared it for a year. Regardless, a promising nose with leather and tobacco, and something that can only be described as old dusty cellar. Medium bodied with rich, dark fruits. Medium tannins. Definitely past its best by the time I had it though.

  Big, rich, deep Tempranillo fruit. A bit too much oak for me. Still it wasn't bad.

  By the glass at BA lounge Gatwick. Fresh bottle
  Proudly boasts 97 points from decanter this is a good modern Ribera wine with all the hallmarks. Ripe juicy, oaky, vanilla and with a good helping of extraction. Good wine but. It a standout. 89
