Review

" Extremely well-mannered, traditional character to this, showing layer upon layer of savory complexity on the nose, with iron, dried meat, tobacco, balsamic fruit, dried red berries, orange peel, leather and dried mushrooms. A medium-to full-bodied, linear and zesty Rioja that’s full of nuanced flavours that linger through the very long, savoury finish. Floral, too. Yet, it remains bright and precise." - 98pts, James Suckling
