Tasting Notes

"Seventeen different parcels make up this Sonsierra blend, which is dominated by Tempranillo with support from Graciano, Mazuelo and some co-planted white varieties. Firm, dense and compact, with well-handled French, American and Eastern European oak and crunchy plum and black cherry fruit. 2024-32.

92 Points - Tim Atkin, Rioja Special Report 2023

"This is a spellbinding, sumptuously flavoured knockout. Captivating on the nose with of berries, licorice, undergrowth, hints of spice and chocolate. The palate is where it really shines, bold with great balance, full-bodied but with silk like tannins and fresh at the same time. A wine that is truly an indispensable experience for those who delight in deeply textured and profound reds that dominate a conversation. This is a shining and extremely rare example of how Spain has breathed new life into the ancient past, so we strongly urge you to climb aboard and taste the magic."
