Fantastic #rioja #riserva - dark fruit, leather, tobacco nose. Fleshy dark fruit on palate with firm acidity but equally robust tannins that build with each sip. — 3 months ago

Very fine and elegant. Olive leaf? Taking the sweetness off the finish. Balanced. — 8 months ago

9.6

Aged for 14 months in new oak barrels 28% American and the rest French. Deep Ruby with aromas of berry fruit, floral, spice and wet stone notes. On the palate flavors of plum, blueberry and black cherry with licorice and sweet vanilla spice, well balanced. Soft fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, mineral and ever so slight oaky tones. Very Nice! — 5 months ago

9.2

What an intense and powerful Rioja. Blend of Tempranillo (85%), Graciano (10%) and Mazuelo (5%). Aromas of red and black cherry/currant fruit with hints of herbs, violets and dry earth. Pallet notes more black berry/currant and plum fruit with notes of chocolate, black tea, baking spices and herbs. Not overly oaky (French Oak aging?) Nice depth with a bit of a creamy texture. Dusty tannins and quite dry. — a year ago

Drank 10/29/23 at The Grey. Really a perfect match with the 38oz rib-eye. Full enough to stand up to the steak, nice throughout. — 6 months ago
