A single vineyard Rioja without aging classification, this is a classy Rioja in modern style. Deep and layered nose of plum, blackberry, cassis, licorice, cigar box, cocoa, and hint of smoked meat. Full elegant body. Nicely integrated oak even at this young age. Supple tannins.

While not as intense as on release this is no where near a shrinking violet. The nose is starting to strut with scents of apple , brioche and nuts.That first taste still makes you recoil and salivate. Lemons , limes , biscuits, and a touch of butterscotch. Very long finish . Developing into everything I hoped for. — 5 days ago
