The nose is sweet with a mix of black fruits spiced up by oak. Black plum, cassis and black cherry are all very ripe giving a supple fleshiness mid palate and this rich mix fills out the back palate and finish. 2013-18 Rating: 91 Derek Smedley MW, www.dereksmedleymw.co.uk (Dec 2013)

Hand-harvested from Rioja Alavesa and aged for 14 months in used barrels, the 2009 Crianza has a luscious, joyful bouquet that brims with succulent kirsch and Morello fruit. The palate has a crisp cranberry and raspberry driven entry with fine, edgy tannins and a lovely crisp, minerally finish. This is a very fine Crianza that should age nicely over the next decade. Drink 2013-2020+ – Neal Martin WA:91 – Another sensational value is the 2009 Rioja Vina Real Crianza. Made from 90% Tempranillo blended with other authorized varietals, this effort comes from vineyards in the foothills of Sierra Cantabria. Exceptionally ripe with a dark ruby/purple color, excellent texture, and outstanding concentration, length and equilibrium, this is one of the finest value-priced Riojas in the marketplace. Enjoy it over the next 4-5 years. Rating: 91 Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, www.RobertParker.com (Nov 2013)
