Exotic and alluring, with notes of cured meats, dried roses, menthol, and spice. Nicely balanced on the palate, with bright acidity and fine tannins.

An interesting wine. Displays herbal notes of agave, currants, and raspberries. Juicy on the palate, but the fruit is subtle and the structure is softer than one would expect.

Initially muted, but with extended swirling shows notes of tree bark, dried roses, and dried currants. Nicely balanced on the palate though, with bright acidity and an extended finish.

Complex and layered, with floral notes of menthol, pine needles, and dried roses. The palate is robust and assertive, with plum and currants coming through.

Deep and intense, with concentrated notes of black current, plum, and black cherries. Rich and robust on the palate, but the excellent structure holds everything together.

Ripe and rich, with notes of currents and plums. Pretty approachable at far as Riservas go, but perhaps slightly one-dimensional.

Robust and concentrated, with savory notes of cured meats, plum, and pomegranate. The palate came across as a little disjointed, however.

A very complex and sophisticated wine. Floral notes of dried roses, macerated raspberries, dried cranberries, and face powder. Balanced and refined, with waves of juicy cherry and raspberries caressing the palate. 93-94 points.

My least favorite wine of the tasting. Herbal notes of agave and menthol. Astringent and tannic on the palate, with a slightly bitter finish.
