Tasting Notes

Clear, bright cherry‑red with violet hints, showing intense ripe black fruits alongside graphite, mineral tones, licorice, violets, cocoa, tobacco, and warm spice. The palate is powerful and dense yet silky, with lively ripe tannins and a very long, persistent finish that keeps unfolding with air.

Food Paring

Pair with grilled ribeye, lamb chops, or roast pork to match the wine’s depth and tannin while letting the fruit stay vivid. For a richer match, try game stew or braised short ribs with earthy herbs, which echo the wine’s spice and savory notes.

Professional Reviews

97 Wine Enthusiast

"This deep garnet-colored wine has a bouquet of cassis, Mission fig, dark chocolate and saddle leather. Luxurious tannins coat the tongue and gums, bathed in vibrant acidity and joined by blackberry, Luxardo cherry, chocolate-covered espresso bean and violet flavors with a soft hint of black olive paste that lingers on the tastebuds with a note of orange zest. Drink through 2048."

Region Information

Rioja is one of Spain’s most renowned wine regions, internationally recognized for high‑quality red wines made primarily from Tempranillo. A combination of Atlantic and Mediterranean influences, along with diverse soils, allows Rioja to produce wines known for balance, elegance, and aging potential. Rioja wines range from fresh and fruit‑forward styles to complex, oak‑aged expressions that define classic Spanish winemaking.

Spain has the largest vineyard area in the world and a winemaking history that spans thousands of years. It is known for regions such as Rioja, Ribera del Duero, and Priorat, which produce distinctive red wines. Spain is also famous for fortified wines like Sherry and sparkling Cava. Modern investments and techniques have elevated quality while preserving regional identity.
