  20 minute decant (very little sediment). Impressive old world nose. Nicely balanced fruit and secondary elements. Less american oak than most Rioja. Excellent overall and in a good drinking window now.

  1/6, very good cork. Decanted 1/2 hr.
  Medium/deep ruby core, pale ruby rim. Smoky, mainly dark fruited nose, quite rich, mocha notes. Medium bodied, black fruited at first, mocha, spice, soft tannins, quite ripe/sweet, fresh/vibrant acidity brings with it flashes of red fruit then liquorice notes on the good length still slightly constricted finish. Drinking now but should improve.
