November 27, 2021 - Dark berry nose followed by a well balanced dark berry palate that exhibits soft tannins and a quick finish. Very enjoyable but I believe it’s fading. Drink up!

October 9, 2020 - Powerful Rioja from Macan, a joint venture of Vega Sicilia & Rothschild combination: black fruit, balsamic, graphite, plum, prune, tobacco, smoke, long spicy finish.
