When smelled initially, the wine has a slightly fruity smell with notes of blackberry. The wine is moderately sweet and his a little acidic. After tasting, the wine has medium to full body with strong notes of leather sour blackberry. It also has subtile umami flavor, similar to butter and sauteed mushrooms. After savoring for a bit, a little spiciness is detected, similar to allspice or cloves. Overall this was a well balanced wine and I would definitely purchase again. I have also made a sautéed mushroom sauce for porkchops with this wine, which paired quite well. I will definitely be a repeat buyer. — 5 days ago

Interesting Rioja blend of Graciano (90%) and Tempranillo (10%). Dark ruby core with a slight garnet rim. Aromas of red cherries, rose petals, leather, mint and dusty earth. Ripe red and black cherry/currant/raspberry fruit on the palate with additional notes of dried herbs (dill), dark chocolate, black olives, coffee and minerals. Touch of vanilla on the bold and lingering finish. Fresh acidity, firm tannins and nicely balanced. Smooth texture, complex and beautifully aged. — 9 days ago

At 10 years old, this was the smoothest Rioja I have tasted. Mild bouquet with dark ruby color. Just wonderful to sip. Accompanied a brisket meal and was a perfect pairing. Drank in November 2024. — 3 months ago

Primarily Tempranillo with a bit of Graciano blended in. Dark red/violet color. Aromas of currants, leather, rose petal and sweet baking spices. Red and black berry fruit on the palate with additional flavors of chocolate, vanilla, dried dill and coffee. Really soft tannins and texture. A bit of a bitter, spicy and oaky finish. Reasonable and a good value. — 10 months ago
