Ripe cherries, blueberries and soft tobacco notes on the palate. Full bodied - fruit driven structure. Round and elegant tannins. Good depth and a great balance. In a good spot right now. Drink now or within the next 8 years.

Packed with a lot of oak and tempranillo in a nice mix. Although alot of everything - everything completely in balance. Very enjoyable and will increase in complexity with 5 more years. Still young.

Tasting versus 09 Reserva, so much more glycerol concentration here. Complex, silky & smooth. Almost redder fruit, perhaps purer fruit and concentration. The 09 Reserva seemed more controlled by the oak, but the fruit shines out here. In this instance the El Nogal is the far better wine.
