  June 21, 2022 - 90 Buen color, bastante cubierto aún. Nariz de Rioja clásico, con madera, caja de puros, grafito... En boca mantiene muy buena acidez, es bastante largo. Según se va abriendo salen notas más complejas, fruta roja y especias. Un clásico.

  May 10, 2016 - Medium-light ruby red, almost pinot-esque. Aroma a bit rough, and some tannic bite on the palate with first sip. A definite tannin bomb, this either needed more age to mellow or some serious decanting. A bit too much for my taste in the end.

  July 25, 2015 - Dinner at Acqua (Acqua Restaurant & Wine Bar, White Bear Lake, MN): Very dark red color. PNP, drank 1 glass over 30 minutes. This was youthful with plenty of new oak showing, tons of anise, and plenty of blackberry and cassis, along with a pleasantly earthy core. This needs several years and plenty of air currently. 89(+?)pts.

  June 22, 2015 - Two glasses at Restaurante Hofmann in Barcelona. I liked this Crianza much more than the Tondonia, CVNE and Lan Reservas on the previous days. Beautifully fragrant nose with much more red fruit, a fair bit of oak on the palate but not overdone and well integrated, bright and clear red fruit, medium finish. A really nice wine, and a great lunch.
