4/30/2024 - Dave Dewar Likes this wine: NR

Popped and poured. Medium amber, really quite dark for a white wine, showing its age. Nose elicited a "wow" from me: lovely aromas of dried apricots, tangerine pith, sweet hay, burnt butter, and vanilla. Replays plus apples on the palate. Full body, medium-high acid, XD, medium alcohol (13%). Long finish of brown apples. Importantly, after 30 minutes or so, the nose and palate completely changed to something more like sherry, which for me was not an improvement.
At its peak, drink now.

Crunchy fresh fruit on the nose, herbs , perfumed,
Fresh palate, rocky mineral quality, a little tannic grip, some spice but not obviously oaky.
Good especially at £9.

This was quite good for a $12 wine (at Costco), with piquant cherry and a very dark color. Good structure and balance. Good stuff, but I'm not sure it'll make old bones. 5-11-16-7: 89/100.

The 2016 has been go-to everyday Spanish red of recent years, and now we are into the 2017. Much like its predecessor, dark red, almost purple in colour. Nose has vanilla notes with a dash of coffee and cloves. Full in the mouth: dry on the front of the plate, with developing ripe blackberry flavours; the long finish is quite dry. Looking forward to trying a few more bottles over the coming years.

Needs a good 2 hours decant. Very oaky on the nose and palate. Currant, notes of spices. Lacks the usual minty freshness of great riojas. Could easily hold for more years.

Dark red color. Small glass over 45 minutes. Nice nose, aromatic, sweet oak, grphite, earthy on the nose. The palate is medium plus bodied, a little herbal, earth, graphite, red berries, with dark nuances and sweet vanillin.

This bottle was more forward than my last two bottles (November and September 23) and slightly less incisive as a result. One point less.

Spicy, full bodied, cherry, syrupy and jam-like. Ruby/burgundy color, with a fruit forward juicy opening and a dry, leathery, and earthy aftertaste.

1/27/2024 - Jshummelt Likes this wine: 90 points

Rich and with nice structure that pairs well with food. Not as finessed as other traditional Riojas, more of a big and bold style with riper fruit. Aroma intensity medium and medium complexity. Tannins round and medium, Acid fairly high to complement the high alcohol, sometimes drowning out the flavor intensity which is medium plus. Great value at a $12 price though.

V: ruby with a developing garnet rim
N: cherry and dried blueberry, pipe tobacco, cedar, herbs/dill, and chocolate/vanilla
P: dried blackberry, ripe cherry, vanilla and cedar

It's okay. Better than many of my previous Rioja experiences (which tasted like dirt). Darker colour, no browning. Black fruit and tarriness on the palate. Maybe a bit simple, but not an unpleasant wine.

Super solid rioja, a bit by the numbers but quite good. Medium intensity nose with oaky vanilla with some whiff of dried cherry. On the palate, good balance between acid and the oak, bright cherry with warm spices. Simple but well-executed.

Wow, this is really good and seems to have been my best bottle yet. It's got that old wine feel, but the fruit isn't dried out in flavor. Just a hint of tannin hanging on, otherwise smooth as silk with the red berry fruit framed by interesting cigar box and other earthy notes.

An early drinking Gran Reserva. Decanted for 30 minutes prior to dinner. Enjoyed at Hugo’s restaurant in Dublin. Vibrant, deep ruby color; highly aromatic red flowers, earth tones, red cherries, plums and raspberries. Not quite as intense on the palate, but certainly showing lots of leather, tobacco and red fruits. Nicely balanced, good length, evolving complexity, and medium plus intensity. Drink through 2030.
