Rating: Robert Parker 91/100
“The 2008 vintage of Pieza el Caldero is composed of 96% Aragon and 4% Grenache, from vines over 70 years old. It was aged for 12 months in American oak barrels before being bottled unfiltered. Slightly less exuberant than the Pieza el Coll (but also a bit more complex), it offers greater density and structure, with ripe, succulent fruit. It is likely to evolve over the next 1 to 2 years and will be a delight to drink through 2018.” (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker)

An interesting wine from average terroirs, yet full-bodied and quite complex, with animal notes.

There's a hint of wood, but plenty of body and complexity. Unbeatable value for money.

It's strong and boozy. It lacks finesse.

Review by Mr. NICOLAS B. Posted on January 6, 2014

This wine is a very pleasant surprise. Its very woody, almost smoky notes won’t be to everyone’s taste. It pairs wonderfully with a rib of beef and strong cheeses, but definitely not with light, refined cuisine.

An excellent wine I hadn't tried before, with a very long finish and a pronounced aroma of cinnamon and spices
