PnP forsiktig nese med en gang åpner fort opp med parfymerte noter som roer seg og går over i klassisk tempranillo nese med bærtørket kaffe rognebær, eikevanilje. Relativt kraftig smak og tydelig eik (sammenlignet med tidligere årganger). 4 dager holder seg fin. Svakere (mer eik) enn tidligere årganger.

Very good wine. Tasting of sweet ripe raspberries, oak and leather. Small hint of tobacco. Long and smooth tannins. The only vintage of this I have tested, so no reference to the others.

I love the 13 - I can’t think of a better value Rioja. The 12 disappointed. So, the 16…… PnPd. There is a an overly saccharin sweetness which dominates. Somewhat cloying. Will this dissipate with age? I don’t know. More tannin/leather/acid needed to bring balance.
