Quite good, but not quite adding up to very good. Concentrated fruit, quite pleasing, decent tannins, not overdoing the barrique notes, but somehow not quite unfolding the way similar red wines do and not as well balanced and integrated. Nothing to complain for the price I paid, but not one I would actively look out for.

OK…I’m sure this is a lovely wine - loved by many. Reserva & all that.
Even-handed, medium body with a soupcon of oak. Little mix of pepper on the palate? Quite sweet & yes, maybe a little too sweet. But omigosh! ..it is not my cup of tea…
Impetuous fruit - like a medicinal ploy, very linear & dull. Not much to rave about - other than the price.

Incontournable. Meilleur que les autres Reserva espagnols. Moins cher en bonus. A vos spaghetti!
