Bright and juicy yet dense on the palate. The finish is soft with sweet barrel spice. A nice wine but I'll take the Lesmos every time over this...

Fruity, thin, weak. A bit like Pee Wee Herman - better pedigree though

Very sweet on the nose with cinnamon and nutmeg. Needs to breath. Subtle but tight tannins. Quick release but smooth.

Had in a pop up outdoor restaurant in Miami that hails from Madrid. Really felt for a minute that we were in Spain. Nice little wine to go with the paella, carne and pulpit we had.

Lot of red fruits, soft tannins, balanced... Good price - quality relation...

High end bottling are some of the best #wine in #Rioja. This is not. geeky note...the 10% garnacha, was treated to oxidative for me, stands out and pushes the wine out of balance

The story here wasn't the wine but the Gambas al ajillo in a little restaurant in Madrid. Wine was lovely though.
