No doubt an accomplished Rioja but I found it too austere and perhaps too young. Acidic, tannic, smoky, dusty. Not all bad things - just a little bit angular and unintegrated for me. I would have liked to see more fruit and spice expression. However, a lot of potential is detectable. And I know how top Tempranillo ages - we're looking at a much better wine in 5-10 years' time. Overall, an ambitious wine, but needs time to open up and reveal its secrets.

Solid fresh young Rioja. With bright red fruits and a some tobacco and leather. High acidity, polished tannins. It’s a fun wine looking for a party now.

Soft tannins, earth driven with dark fruits, easy, drinking wine that is probably somewhere near its peak right now
