Occasional wine note

This is one of the families who really put Rioja as a powerful wine making region on the map. This another gem of a Tempranillo. It goes with just about everything, but we love it with Castelvetrano olives and/or Manchego cheese, or salt and pepper chips, or just in a glass without any distractions. Enjoy!

Wine Enthusiast

This deep-ruby-colored wine offers aromas of black plum, dark chocolate and Earl Grey tea. On entry, it is smooth in the mouth, with flavors of mint, clove, cherry, black currant, dark chocolate and orange blossom. Vigorous tannins coat the tongue and gums and diffuse into a lingering finish.

James Suckling

Aromas of black mushrooms, sweet cherries and plums with some cedar and intense lavender. Full-bodied with chewy yet polished tannins and beautiful presence at the finish. Lively and intense. Better after 2025, but already very impressive.
