Robert Parker

"The 2012 Crianza is fairly classic, with herbal notes of mint and ripe berries. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with fine tannins and a pleasant, long finish. Year after year, it stands as a benchmark among Crianzas and offers excellent value for money." (Wine Advocate 2015 - Robert Parker)
