L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

"The 2011 Reserva wants to be more modern, with more fruit but a long aging in barrique. It's Tempranillo with 10% Graciano from vineyards in Briones, fermented separately in small oak vats and matured in new and second use barriques for 24 months. It feels very young and lively (in fact, they are going to keep the 2012 in bottle for one more year), with a bright ruby color and a subtle and clean nose, with subtle perfume and balsamic aromas of cigar ash and incense. It has great balance and a clean palate, focused and gentle with a very Rioja profile. It feels like there is a big jump from the Crianza to the complexity of this Reserva. This is delicious right now. 176,000 bottles produced".
