Wine critics reviewsReviews by Parker

The red 2018 Reserva feels modern, ripe and generously oaked in a commercial style, a blend of Tempranillo with 15% Garnacha that achieved 14% alcohol, good ripeness and balance in a cooler year. It has some iron notes and hints of blood and berry fruit with generous spice and faint smoke. The palate is medium to full-bodied with grainy tannins, and there are some oak-related flavors in the finish. 41,800 bottles and 2,500 magnums produced. It was bottled in August 2019.
