Starting with this vintage, the 'Reserva' designation seems to have been dropped from the label, but I was assured by the consultant at the store that it's 'the same juice'. The nose is a little rustic, earthy, musty, grapey and oaky. Medium body, dry, slight astringency, balanced acidity, but little fruit to speak of, has a natural quality that makes it a fair value, but unremarkable.
