A Best Buy |
| Josh Raynolds called this \"... Fruit-driven and approachable, with a smooth, gently tannic finish that echoes the cherry and spice notes\" and suggested a drinking window of 2019-2024. (vinous.com, May 2017) TASTING NOTE: A fresh and easy Rioja that shows plum and cherry character. Hints of cream. Mushroom, too. Medium body, low tannins and a crisp finish. Delicious now. Score - 90 (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, July 24, 2017) |
