Lovely nose of dried fruit and nuts, soft and elegant on the plate, with a hint of dryness on the finish. Layered on the palate and lingers in the mouth. -En Rama NYC popup — 8 years ago

Almost as good as an over priced Napa cab. Worked well with 4 lbs of rodizio. I probably should not be allowed to rate this kind of wine. I actually enjoyed drinking this but still kinda hate it. I have emotional issues. — 11 years ago

Of all the old Rioja I’ve been drinking this last year this, together with the Marqués de Riscal 1964, stands out the most. A stunning wine with mindblowing complexity. A true joy to drink. The bottle was finished extremely fast. — 7 years ago
