our notes follow the guidelines of WSET systematic approach to tasting:

appearance:

clear bright of medium intensity garnet color with a tawny rim and several luscious legs

nose:

clean of medium (+) intensity, although fully developped with aroma characteristics of a well developped rioja: plums, raisins, tobacco, leather, cloves, we can still perceive hints of berry fruits

palate:

dry with low acidity and medium (-) tannin, medium (+) alcohol level and a medium body, medium flavour intensity of a developped rioja: raisins, hints of plums & tobacco. nice hints of dark berries on the finish.

slightly off balance with alcohol a little higher than the flavours, with a medium (-) lenght.

conclusion:

good, however, the palate does not fulfill the promise of the nose but the flavours although not as intense as the bouquet still offer a nice complexity and succulent after-taste.

hints of tannins and fruits makes us beleive the wine can age for some time.
