Robert Parker

"The 2005 Crianza is 100% Tempranillo aged for 15 months in French and American oak prior to bottling without filtration. Dark ruby-colored, the nose exhibits mineral and earth notes as well as plenty of spice and blackberry aromas. Smooth-textured and easy-going, the wine has excellent balance and depth, complex, savory flavors, and a lengthy, pure close. "
Rated "Highly Recommended" 89 Points
