  This is a good wine to learn about Spain's wine history, but that is it. In fact, in these years, they were using a lot of oak... too much of it. It was not tasting the tempranillo at all: just oak, and a lot of it. It was ok, but you have to like oak to like it.
  
  After rereading my previous tasting note about this wine, I was wondering if I opened the same wine? I'll never know, but I am more confident in this one!

  Really good wine for the price. Some mature smell and still a good and lively tempranillo wine!
  
  You will get a pretty good wine for your bucks (about 17$ for 1998 wine).

  Robe rubis plus clair, nez sur le cacao, notes boisées en retrait, fruité rouge, assez expressif. En bouche, bel équilibre, fruits rouges, cacao au rendez-vous, présences de baies sauvages en finale, mais manque de corps. Longueur correcte. Pour le prix it's a deal! be rubis plus clair, nez sur le cacao, notes boisées en retrait, fruité rouge, assez expressif.

  Tried this as a inexpensive daily red. Price is good but too much oak for my taste.

  Un beau vin pour le prix et un 1998. Il a bien évoluer, mais ca surement commencer a redescendre? Bonne idée de carafer un demi heure ça adoucie sont coté trop boisé
