The 2011 Crianza was more complex than its sibling. Aged 14 months in French and American oak, it offers up abundant notes of graphite, charcoal, blackcurrants and black cherries, a medium-bodied, precise mouthfeel and a savory finish. I preferred the 2011 to the 2010. Drink now-2018.

This crisp red shows black cherry, fresh herb and licorice flavors, with notes of spice and smoke. Focused, with light, firm tannins and balsamic acidity. Lively. Drink now through 0. 7,500 cases made, 7,500 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Rioja Select to Add

Brilliant ruby. Spice-accented aromas of black raspberry, cola and smoky minerals , along with a suave floral overtone. Silky and open-knit, offering sweet red berry flavors and suggestions of five-spice powder and candied rose. Finishes with bright, tangy lift, strong cut and very good persistence, leaving a juicy red berry quality behind.
