Cola, spice, black currant. Great buy. Even the resident Rioja hater thought it was "pretty good."

Loved this wine. It's decanted for 30 miN and was so smooth and full bodied.

Excellent wine value - inexpensive magnum which I bought a Total Wine. There's some really great wine coming out of Spain these days.

Blackberry rawberries acetone to the nose. Fruit jammy foward berries changing to leather and subtle oak through the mid palate. Vanilla and spice on the back end. Nice tannin and acid balance with a med plus finish. Decanted for 4 hours and showing very nicely.

Solid wine. Not quite as good as the 2010 Reserva, but for $5 less this is great.

Full bodied, fruity, smoky with some tannins to balance the sweetness. I loved this wine, and I rarely say that about any bottle at this price point.

90% Tempranillo 10% Mazuelo (Carignan) nice! A cool 16 mos. on American AND French oak.
