Our Professional Review
Oscar Garcia Lead Wine Sommelier 67Wine.com | One of Rioja's benchmark Crianzas. A well-rounded red that delivers a solid drinking experience. Late spring of 2017 I had the pleasure to be in Rioja and although a late frost damaged some of the buds, the quality in what survived is fairly consistent.
Aromas of plum compote, cassis and notes of cinnamon and cloves. Medium-bodied with polished and pleasant tannins. Consistent and satisfying finish. Pair with beef-stews or any rice dishes such as Shrimp-fried rice.
Winemaker Description
D.O.CA RIOJA Tempranillo and other varieties.
Selection of small plots from Rioja Alta and Rioja Alavesa. Low yields from old vines harvested by hand.
Mostly clayey-limestone. Plots in Rioja Alta with ferrous subsoil and more limestone in Rioja Alavesa.
Wine suitable for vegans.
12 months in French (60%) and American (40%) oak barrels. The barrels are distributed between 25% new oak, 25% with two wines, and the other 50% with a maximum of three to four wines.
2021 had an average 30% more rainfall, albeit with a patchy distribution. February was very warm, and the vines budded normally, in a consistent widespread manner. A warm and slightly humid month of May speeded up vegetative progress by controlling the sanitary conditions in the early stages of growth. A rainy June, was followed by a 10-week period of showers with ideal temperatures for the vines. The beginning of September was wet.
Variety: Tempranillo with some Garnacha tinta, Mazuelo
Type: Reds
Size: 750ml

James Suckling writes: Notes of dark fruit, cloves, licorice, spiced oak, walnuts and stoney soil. Medium-bodied with firm, dusty tannins, bright acidity and a round texture. Fine-grained and balanced, with delicious fruit and a lingering finish. Drink or hold. - James Suckling 92
