95 pts. Wine Enthusiast “Deep garnet to the eye, this wine has aromas of cassis, raspberry and a hint of vanilla. Velvety tannins are wrapped around flavors of blackberry, Mission fig, dark chocolate and black olive paste that are joined by a closing note of aniseed.“
Michael Schachner
93 pts. Wine Enthusiast “Vino This intriguing wine is ruby-colored and has aromas of red currant, black plum and wild blueberry. In the mouth bright fruit flavors dance across your tongue and are sheathed by suede-like tannins. There’s a touch of freshly ground black pepper in the finish.“
Michael Schachner
91 pts. Decanter “A lovely contrast of sweet, ripe loganberry fruit with savoury woodsmoke and autumn leaf notes. Light with a fine-boned, delicate structure.”

9o pts. Tim Atkin “More expensive than many Crianzas on the market, but it’s worth paying a little extra for a wine of this quality. Juan Escudero partners Tempranillo, 20% Mazuelo and 10% Garnacha to produce an American oak-aged red with lots of colour, bramble and blueberry fruit and a leafy, herbal undertone.“
