Robert Parker

“An exceptional Rioja! Dominio del Viento 2011 is made from Tempranillo and Graciant grapes 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)
