Wine Spectator

This Licenciado Reserva develops beautiful notes of wild fruit, vanilla, and spices on the nose. On the palate, it is well-balanced, round, and elegant, and is the perfect example of a classic Rioja, perfectly mastered. Not to be missed!

It's on red fruit (cherry for me), long and smooth, strong and sweet, perfect!!! It's definitely a Roja.

There were six of us, and we all agreed: too strong, with no real fruit or wood flavor. Disappointing.
