This is a super value Rioja. Bright medium ruby. The nose is clean, with aromas of ripe red fruit, red flowers and a bit of spice. (It is aged 14 months in oak barrels, but presumably they are not new oak.) The palate is dry, but endowed with sweet fruit, medium (+) acidity, medium to medium (+), supple tannins and medium (+) alcohol (13.5%). This is a well-balanced, tangy red which is surprisingly youthful given its five years of age, Drink now through 2025.

A very good table wine. Not a lot of complexity, some fruit, light tannins, but very drinkable. For the money ($10) a very enjoyable wine.

Very nice Rioja. Leans towards new style Rioja. Good balance between red fruits a bit of spice, tobacco and oak. Easily accessible to drink
