March 26, 2024 - Tar and gravelly minerality amongst the dry cherries and leather. A great buy at $21.

April 30, 2022 - Lovely full nose. Smooth on the palate with deep, ripe cherry fruit and some vanilla and leather. If tasted blind I woud have guessed that it was from Washington State. Very nice Ribera and I'll hold onto my last bottle for a couple more years.

June 4, 2020 - The wine was opened at 4PM, poured at 6:30 and consumed at 7:30 PM. This was a jammy, yet not over-powering wine. It was so well balanced with a hint of fruit and vanilla. I felt the wine was still young even after 9 years. LOTS of life left in this one.
