Medium ruby with pretty purple undertones. The nose arrives a bit muted, a bit subtle at first but the action soon picks up with some nice smoked meat and wood aromas. Floral notes really begin to dominate after an hour or so with tobacco and vanilla coming to join the party. Cherries, both black and red, along with raspberries and just a touch of warm blueberry pie.

At 22 years of age, this is showing so well. Feels youthful and vigorous with years to go. No sign of fading or bricking whatsoever. Well integrated and fairly robust in spots. There’s a nice level of complexity to be found here. The soft, subtle spice is ever present and a joy. The dark fruit shines after a lengthy decant with that oak coming through towards the end. The finish is long and lusty and leaves you wanting just a little more. Really, really fun. — 2 years ago

Drinking phenomenally well for an 8 year old organic Rioja - red fruits, delicate yet great structure and body — 7 years ago
