October 18, 2021 - Aromas of black cherries and raspberries. Medium to full-bodied, again cherries and raspberries, some marzipan, tobacco and salty (soy-like) notes. Tannins still noticeable, a lively acidity will make it age well. Needed a two hour decant to open up completely.

August 13, 2021 - Ohh very high tannins c6/c10. What Faustino I used to be before they softened it for the US market. Very strong complex and woody. Outstanding wine

April 23, 2020 - Multi hour decant, a heavy nose of dark fruit and oak. When it comes to the palate it is classic Rioja, on the more uncomplicated side, but nonetheless a solid bottle of well aged tempranillo that has several years in it still if you can leave it alone in your cellar.
