Dried cherries, cedar, sandalwood, tar, treacle tart, cinnamon and vanilla. Medium body, fine-grained and very silky tannins for a wine of almost 10 years of age, bright and transparent acidity and a long, very spicy finish. Like going back in time and touching an ornate tapestry. The texture is mesmerizing. Drink now. James Suckling

Has too much presence in relation to the structure but authentic and authoritative aroma makes it compelling. The flavor could dig deeper into the core and bit more continuous but that may happen down the road. Conventional but true classic.

Never fails. A beautiful medium body Rioja with dark palm notes and matured cherries. Tanins already soft.

2010 vintage. Smooth balanced tasty Rioja, black berries and cherries are well noticed.

Classic Rioja. Plum, vanilla. Solid core backbone of acidity.
