When playing poker, it's always important to mentally breakdown your opponents by serving old Rioja. My knees are still shaking.

Jan 18th, 2024Plenty of American oak on the nose. Dill & vanilla with some dark plum aromatics. Medium bodied with a classy weight & texture. The oaky notes are there, but a pretty array of red fruit & tobacco leaf add some complexity. Structure is receding at this point and the wine is beginning to show some clove & herbal secondary character. Excellent.

Sep 6th, 2014Cork was loose and some minor seepage but wine was nice. Think seepage added a candied cherry effect. Nice acidity mixing with the cherry and a nice classic Rioja palate. Think would have been off the charts with a more pristine bottle.
