“Vivid ruby. An explosively perfumed bouquet of cherry-cola, blackberry, potpourri and smoky Indian spices. Becomes spicier with air, offering sweet black and blue fruit liqueur and fruitcake flavors and an exotic lavender pastille quality that contributes vivacity. A mineral nuance emerges with aeration, adding further energy to the wine’s dense, sweet fruit qualities. Supple, slow-building tannins add grip to the extremely long, spicy, focused finish, which leaves notes of cola and vanilla behind. One of the great wines of a great vintage–and drinkable now, if one wishes. Or age it further.” Josh Raynolds, vinous.com

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
