"Glass-staining ruby. Assertive aromas of red berries, rose and spicecake, with a hint of smoke. Silky and sweet, with fresh raspberry and floral flavors and tangy back-end lift. In an elegant, precise style, with very good finishing clarity and length. This is drinking very well right now."

89 Jay Miller - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"Another impressive effort is their 100% Tempranillo, the 2008 Crianza. From a more challenging vintage, this unfined/unfiltered cuvee spent 14 months in French and American oak. Its deep ruby/plum color is followed by notes of cedar wood, crushed chalk, black currants, cherries and hints of herbs and underbrush. This supple-textured, medium-bodied, deliciously fruity, deep red should drink well for 4-6 years.
