L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

The red 2021 Predicador has notes of ripe black fruit and dark spices and is a little earthy, powerful, concentrated and generously oaked but balanced and integrated. A modern, powerful red Rioja produced with Tempranillo and complemented with 3% each Graciano and Mazuelo and 2% Garnacha, it has a juicy palate with plenty of power and abundant, fine-grained tannins. It's ripe without excess at 14.7% alcohol. 90,000 bottles produced. It was bottled after spending 19 months in used French oak barrels. - Luis Gutiérrez. 

Tim Atkin:

Tempranillo based with the remaining 8% divided between Graciano, Mazuelo and Garnacha, Predicador is Benjamín Romeo's largest volume red. Ripe, spicy and textured, it's a full-bodied style with notes of fig, mulberry and raspberry jam, mountain herb top notes, subtle toasty wood and enough acidity for balance. 2024-29
