After 39 years, this wine still has held up well. Typical Rioja Tempranillo grapes with tobacco, leather and black fruit to the nose. Oaky. Almost no tannins and still balanced.

The best Rioja I've ever tried! Deep, rich flavors, and a smooth, oaky finish. This Rioja took me on a journey to old España and back! — 8 years ago
Totally drinkable red — 9 years ago
Very nice, extremely drinkable, paired well with my (actually delicious) frozen burrito but also a good sipper after. A lot of fruit - dark berries, a little strawberry - balanced with a smoky, spiciness. Quite smooth. Really great on a beautiful, clear, warm-turning-to-cool spring evening. #españa #rioja #crianza #tempranillo #dogsofdelectable — 10 years ago

Buen nivel de acides — 12 years ago
What the heck. Giving it another shot. Dark chocolate and tar flavors compliment the cherry notes. Still young and bursting with energy. But still believe it needs a lot of time to come together. Might have underrated at last tasting. From Haro, España. Naturally. — 7 years ago
