Professional Ratings
95 Decanter
This is a big wine with alluring aromas of cedary oak and black fruit. Ripe palate of black berries, some dark chocolate and integrated, polished oak. Long spicy finish. Classy Ribera.
91 James Suckling
A red with lots of black-cherry, vanilla and dark-chocolate character. It’s full-bodied with chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. A little hard now, but will open after a year or two.
