A bit fleshier than previous vintages. The move to less new oak and less time in oak seems focus the wines here a bit, but the house style of nearly opulent dark fruit remains. — 5 years ago

Le cuesta abrir, pero cuando lo hace, se aprecia su gran cimplejidad en nariz y su final con acidez que hace que tenga mucho recorrido — 9 years ago

A fruit-forward Rioja, not much wood aging, and a touch of garnacha and graciano perks it up too. Easy drankin' red, fo' shizzle. — 10 years ago

Bodega de ribera de Luis Cañas. 100% tempranillo de viñas muy viejas a más de 800m. de altitud. 24 meses en roble francés. Vino de capa alta, ribetes violáceos y lágrimas muy densa. En nariz es floral y se percibe tabaco. En boca es sobresaliente. Aquí si destaca la barrica: caramelo, tabaco y cognac. Paso suave pero consistente, con un final largo y muy agradable. Deseas que la botella no se acabe nunca. Vale lo que cuesta, sin duda alguna (32€ en carrefour) — 10 years ago

From the best blend of selected grapes comes this "Alonso Branco" out of Carlos Alonso Douro Wines. Fermented at low temperatures, to best keep the varietal flavours. On the nose is rich and complex with notes of tropical fruits, young and fresh, with a long finish on the mouth, serve chilled at 8-10•c as an aperitif, with salads, fish or seafood — 13 years ago

Medium minus acidity I think, even though the bottles says it’s very acidic, with a medium body and a kick of alcohol. I get citrusy notes like lime in this, which I really like, but might be wrong. SO was tipsy already but enjoyed it. — 5 years ago

Posiblemente el mejor torro argento (¿mundial?) de 2015, aunque Colomé le podría pelear el cetro. Perfumadísimo y con final salvaje, fresco y traslúcido. Cuesta encontrarle un defecto. El sugerido en sept 2015 es de 250pe aprox. — 9 years ago

Tempranillo - somewhat a chameleon - is a varietal I almost always enjoy in any expression. This Paso Robles version shows the darker side of its fruits with plum, amarena cherry, and mission fig. There's an initial impression of broken gray earth that builds as the nose opens and gains complexity with dried sage, fennel pollen, and dare I say. ..a whisper of American oak. The tailored structure impresses Ribera del Duero in my mind and I want to open this again sometime. ... side by side with something like Alonso del Yerro's Maria. — 10 years ago

It seemed like the perfect moment to have this wine. It already started to show some signs that it was going downhill (teriyaki and soy sensations) one year later and I think it wouldn't be nearly as good. Good thing this was one of only 8 bottles left on the planet of this vintage. #carraovejas #riberadelduero — 10 years ago

Of six RdDs, this was my favorite. At bit closed at first, then smoky meats and raisins. Full bodied and powerful with ripe cherries, oak and chocolate on the finish. Surprising, since it was one of the cheapest of the evening. — 11 years ago

Es muuy suave, se siente el sabor de lanuva, predomina el malbec, es excelente. No deja su sabor por mucho tiempo en la boca. Va bien con todo, cuesta 140bs aprox. — 12 years ago
