April 18, 2024 - Nice example of Ribera, tending more towards the oak and bitter tannins than some. Good fruit in depth adding balance.

------------------------------
Hustrun och jag eniga om poängen då detta är ett intensivt kraftpaket i sina yngre dagar som har potential framgent. 100% Tempranillo från över 50 år gamla stockar och just under 1000 möh.
Massor av röda, svarta och lila frukter, rivjärnstanniner, finstämd kryddighet, spänstiga syror och längd. Bra komplexitet och superb balans. -

February 16, 2024 - WTSO hit a home run. Great wine and great QPR for $20. Very smooth, complex, well structured and a medium strong finish. Mixed fruit flavors with spicy notes & perfect integration with subtle tannins. Such a great deal I ordered a case.
