a big time stinky cheese on the nose with some dark fruit, some nice plum and blueberry on the pallette with a slite tobacco alcohol finish, very very nice, the longer it is open the more blueberry and raspberry. i love it!

More traditional than modern. Interesting black cherry mixed with thyme and mint. A bit of old cedar too. A tad too much heat. Good food wine as most riojas are.

Wine Cellar Spain (Wine Cellar, Cape Town): (Tasted Blind): Mid ruby in colour; initially a touch reductive, but moreover, an effusive Bing cherry is joined by strawberry and ripe sliced plums. Fantastic bouquet! Not much weight in the entry and more light to medium bodied; the wine displays cherry, spice and cherry cola notes with furry tannins and fresh acidity that give a glossy overall feel to its medium finish. Very approachable but 1-dimensional. 18 months in wood
