Community Tasting Note

  • Vintomas wrote: 91 points

    December 2, 2013 - Deep red, somewhat compact colour. Big but somewhat sweetish nose with blackberries, dark cherries, some raspberries, noticeably flowery, hints of eucalyptus, some animal notes with well integrated oak. Palate with powerful concentration, ripe dark cherries, blackberries, noticeable spice with medium(+) tannins, some animal notes, aftertaste with sweet berries, good acidity and some tannins. Drinkable now, but can definitely be cellared and probably gain from it, 91 p.
    A classy wine, but in terms of classical Rioja perhaps more in the style of a Reserva with its focus on berry aromas, and it seems to originate from a ripe and sweet vintage.
