Winemakers Note's 

This wine shows shades of medium to deep shiny cherry colour with a purple background. On the nose, intense aromas of ripe fruits (blackberries, blackcurrants) stand out, complemented with subtle hints of oak. Structure and roundness dominate the palate with a good integration of fruitiness and oakiness. The aftertaste is marked by very well balanced tannins and persistent spicy, toasty and balsamic aromas. A long stay in the bottle is the finished touch to this Rioja Alavesa wine's character.
