Tasted by: Pedro Ballesteros Torres MW, Sarah Jane Evans MW, Pierre Mansour
(at Decanter's March 2017 issue Premium Red Rioja Panel Tasting, 12 Dec 2016)
Drinking Window: 2017 - 2023
A chalky mocha textured Rioja with a background of bright cherry fruit. Toasty chewy oak commands the palate, but it is certainly balanced with a simple finish.
