    Not the best year for this label

    This is drinkable but not what I would regard as a good Rioja, I like the Label and would recommend the 2007 which is cheaper over this one.

    Smooth and fruity

    This is an exceptionally good wine from one of the best recent years for Rioja. Smooth, full of fruit, good length, it is a delight. I'm buying some more.

      Waste of money had better at half the price. Very disappointed the 2007 was a better wine. I still have four bottles. I will taste again one day soon. Such a lot to pay for a mediocre Rioja.
