Exceptional and highly complex, showing layered aromas of black cherry, cassis and plum alongside dried flowers, cedar, tobacco and subtle balsamic and mineral notes. The palate is elegant yet powerful, with finely etched tannins, vibrant acidity and remarkable depth. Long ageing brings tertiary nuances of leather, spice and tea leaf, leading to a poised, endlessly persistent finish. A benchmark Rioja of outstanding finesse, structure and longevity.
