"The very complex nose offers up notes of black cherries, pomegranate, a bit of mustard seed, coffee, Rioja nutmeg, a touch of chocolate, lovely soil tones and a generous blast of spicy French oak. On the palate the wine is medium-full, silky and utterly suave on the attack, with lovely intensity of flavor, excellent focus and a fair bit of new oak tannin perking up the finish."

Spain has the largest area under vine of any country and a deep tradition of oak-aged reds. Tempranillo-based wines from Rioja and Ribera del Duero, alongside Priorat's Garnacha and Carinena, anchor its fine-wine reputation.
