Robert Parker

“An exceptional Rioja! Dominio del Viento 2011 is a blend of Tempranillo and Gracian aged for 12 months in French oak barrels. Seductive notes of pencil shavings, blackcurrant, licorice, and a hint of barbecue smoke emerge from this medium-bodied, fruity, elegant red, which displays impressive purity, texture, and depth. The wine’s overall balance and mature style suggest drinking it now and over the next 5 to 6 years. " (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker)
