Rating: 3.5 (10 reviews)

Rioja|Red wine

3.5/5 (10 customers)

Rating: Robert Parker 91/100
“The 2008 Crianza offers great maturity, with a bouquet of bay leaf and plum and a hint of white pepper. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, with succulent tannins on the attack. It is very well-balanced with roundness and a sensual finish offering hints of pepper and toast. This is a beautiful Crianza, best enjoyed now through 2018.” (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker)
