Dark Color. In the taste plum, that was a bit sweet, with a hint of cinnamon. A bit of complexity and an OK acidity. Maybe the taste was once and awhile a bit tired, but still quite attractive. At the fourth day more vivid and with complexity. Probably best to drink this wine within one year. 89-90.

Kept about ten years under condition 2 (see my profile). Color: dark, almost black. Not much of a nose. Taste: nice mature notes with an attractive complexity, a bit dominating the fruit that had left. It would have been better to drink it earlier, beacuse the balance between fruit and mature notes probably was better in an earlier stage. Still nice. To drink within one year. 90.

First night this was full bodied, painting a broad swath of Rioja textures and flavors. The second night it was down a peg from the first night. The texture seemed heavier and less compelling. Still good, just not quite the initial taste.

Still rocking it. Good fill, solid cork, no sediment. Beautiful dark, easy drinking wine.
