Note: I use the recommended scale, so 85 represents a very good wine.
Bone dry, and a bit unidimensional for my palate, although a decent bottle overall. Held up nicely on Day 2.

Five and a half years after the last bottle, and it is as if time has stood still. The decant was not as long, but the wine was as stellar. Sadly, my last.

Great bottle in all respects. Took a bit to open up (an hour or so in a narrow bottom decanter), but after that it was one satisfying mouthful after another. Held up on Day 2 with no degradation. Had a touch of chocolate somewhere.
I do not drink a lot of Rioja, so I cannot compare in this regard; however, the quality was equal to an upscale Bordeaux.
I have another. No need to rush, but no need to wait.
