"An outstanding Rioja Reserva that has some fine plushness from the oak. Dark chocolate, cedar, dark spices and a hint of truffle to the fresh blackberries. Juicy and dusty with very firm yet dusty tannins on the fine-grained and full-bodied palate. Long, structured and well-knit. Drink or hold." - 94 Points James Suckling
"Well-balanced and silky on the palate, this classy red features a beam of ripe mulberry fruit, with creamy tannins and aromatic hints of dried flowers, crushed pine and sandalwood, followed by a plush finish. Drink now through 2029. 29,100 cases made, 7,000 cases imported. -AN" - 91 Points Wine Spectator
"The 2019 Reserva is 100% Tempranillo from Villabuena, Samaniego and Ábalos, Rioja Alavesa. Aged 16 months in American and French oak barrels, this garnet wine unfolds herbal, balsamic and oak notes that soar over a cherry and strawberry core. Dry, rich and fairly liqueur-like, the warm palate offers fine-grained tannins and an overwhelming, lasting mouthfeel." - 90 Points Joaquin Hidalgo, Vinous Media
