Reviews and Ratings

Douglas McMillan rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Owned black cherry and tobacco with just the right amount of rounded tannins. This was a 2012 tasted in 2018. Time to see if there's more available ...
Alex & Priya - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

Alex: A fine, savoury, value Spanish red that's mid-weight, easy-drinking and with plenty of complexity for the cost on offer. Expect tobacco leaf and strawberries in vanilla, with a spicy dried herbs finish of decent length. Enjoyable drop, and a prime candidate to take over to a party. 86 pts

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
