December 6, 2019 - Pure fruit that gets pretty opulent with some air. Low acidity, short, watery finish. I don’t really get it. 86-87.

Thanks for your comment. I wasn’t comparing with other riojas but merely with what I like in a forceful red wine. I would have liked this to be more forceful. But maybe it was tannins and acidity together that I found lacking. I certainly liked it, but I don’t see how it can earn 90 points.
