  Dark cherry aromas. On the palate, cherries and sweet tobacco. Slightly drying tannins, nice acidity and balance. Finishes moderately long with cherry notes. Nice wine, nothing spectacular. I'd drink over the next 2 to 3 years.

  Opened it on a Monday, because it was Monday and absolutely LOVED it! Then I saw how much I paid for it and loved it even more! Smooth, heavy wine that I would drink again and again.

  Also known as a "study of american oak". Sweet Oak flavors dominate this wine and not in a positive way IMO. Vanilla, followed by a minty dill pickle barrel flavor. Some dark berry fruit underneath but over shadowed by barrel notes

  Smoother than expected and it has a nice oak taste.

  Very nice balance to this medium weight Rioja that includes classic Tempranillo flavors.
