Agree with other comments...the wine can still gain some if stored in the cellar for a few more years. But overall no disappointment, robust Rioja that blended well with grilled game meat.

Good robust start of black fruit. Mellows a bit and some oak flavors meld in. Medium smooth finish. Nothing too complex but an excellent table wine at6 this age.

Drank over 2 nights - still needs time to add complexity.
Dark red color with clear meniscus. On nose, strawberry, red currants, dill/American Oak and leather. Medium body /tannins / acidity with long finish. On palate, dark cherry, plum and black currants - needs time. 90+/- today with room for improvement. Will try again in 2025+

"Dill" on the nose? Will ponder. Otherwise stewed dark fruit, fruit leather, medium to short finish. Smooth if not flat. Uneventful.

Too young. Yes this can be drunk now, but too fruity for my liking. Needs a good five more years.
