Disagree with most of the scores here. This wine is Very Good, but not Excellent. That is, very decent for a 13 year old Crianza, neither polished-modern nor significantly old-school, neither impressive nor boring, neither old nor young: just a modestly priced wine one's happy to have in the cellar to go with a chicken paella on a cold Thursday night.

Dark, opaque purple in color. Big nose of dark fruits, oak, spice and a floral element. On the palate, this wine is full and still a bit tight, but displaying a good volume of fruits and a touch of earth. This finishes with a strong, refreshing acidity and a somewhat unrefined tannic structure.

I had high hopes for this one. Somewhat disappointing, in particular for a EUR 17 RdD. You can get better than this. Drink now, it won't get better.

Good red fruit flavors, nice acidity, a bit of earthy complexity. Still plenty of years left.
