The 2010 Reserva, from a very good growing season, is mostly Tempranillo with some Graciano and Mazuelo aged for two years in American and French oak barrels. The effect of the American wood is quite obvious and intermingles with aromas of roasted sesame seeds, toasted bread, hints of balsam and incense and a core of rather simple fruit. The palate is polished and has tasty flavors, perhaps lacking a bit of mid-palate interest. This is a noteworthy follow up to the 2008 I tasted last year. 70,000 bottles.

Brisk acidity and light tannins give this red a lean, lively character, delivering tart cherry, black olive, leafy, orange peel and smoky flavors that are complex and harmonious. In the traditional style. Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo. Drink now through 2022. 5,800 cases made, 300 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Rioja Select to Add
