The very classical 2016 Reserva has notes of meat and blood, spices and smoke, developed with hints of iodine and a very polished and silky palate. Brilliant.

Lean and juicy, this red offers cranberry, cherry compote, tangerine and vanilla flavors. Tangy and a bit hard candy in character. Light tannins lend focus, while citrusy acidity keeps this lively.

The classical, sleek and polished 2014 Reserva was produced with a blend of Tempranillo with 10% Graciano from their El Estanque estate vineyards. The grapes fermented separately and matured in French and American oak barrels for 18 months. The nose has it all—the ripe berries, the forest floor, the sweet spices, the balsamic incense and cigar ash—all in harmony and integration. The palate is medium-bodied with resolved tannins and good balance, lively and tasty, almost salty. Great price too. 118,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in 2018.
