"Deep garnet to the eye, this wine has aromas of dark plums and blackberry with a hint of summer farm stand. It is warming on the palate, with hardcore tannins and flavors of blackberry jam, cooked plums, dark chocolate, orange zest and a long-lasting finish. Mike DeSimone"

"(2021) From their Pago del Cielo vineyard at 895 metres altitude in Ribera del Duero, this Tempranillo spent 12 months in a mix of French and American oak. There's a lovely lift of kirsch and violet at first, chocolaty and vanilla oak notes too, and deep black fruits. The palate offers more of the same, that is a depth of creamy and smooth black fruit and chocolate, but a little elegance too, a raspberry and cherry skin brightness with dry, sandy tannins and good balancing acidity. Flavoursome and good value. The 2018 vintage is in Waitrose at £12.99."

"Schwarzkirsche und dunkle Schokolade, erdige Untertöne, dezent rauchiges Holz. Hohe Präsenz am Gaumen, sandiges Tannin in dichter Menge, aber mit guter Proportion und nicht wuchtig oder massiv, reife, gut eingebundene Säure, kirschige Gaumenfrucht, eine gehaltvolle, makellos ausgewogene Crianza."

"Präsenter Holzton, Schokoladepulver, Kokos. Dahinter die Frucht reifer Tempranillos (kandierte Süßkirsche) und balsamische Noten. Am Gaumen dicht, mit feinem Tannindruck, saftiger Auflösung und einer Ahnung von noch kommender Würze im Abklang. Ein geschmeidiger, eleganter Wein im Ribera-del-Duero-Stil. Ulrich Sautter"

"Cool, murky berry aromas are gamy. A blast of fruitiness propels a big palate loaded with spicy chocolaty oak. Bold berry flavors are short-lasting on a tight, intense finish. Crianzas are made to drink young, but this will benefit from more aging; drink through 2028. Michael Schachner"

"This wine's blackberry, grilled meat and olive aromas are a bit rustic. It's honest on the palate, with stewed fruit, spiced plum and herbal flavors that finish with bold acidity. A no-frills but good Ribera del Duero. Michael Schachner"

"Gritty herbal aromas of olive, asphalt and compost announce a cool-vintage wine. This feels raw and massively tannic. Roasted barely ripe plum and berry flavors finish bone dry and pulling."

"Dunkle Farbe. Pflaume, Zimt und ätherisch-pfeffrige Untertöne. In der Gaumeneröffnung viel Schmelz und Fülle, viskoser, aber zugleich auch saftiger Fond, dabei trotz einer spät aufkommenden, eher zurückhaltenden Säure von deutlich kalkmineralischer Salzigkeit in Balance gehalten. Kompakter, weinbaulich gut beherrschter und ebenso gut vinifizierter Wein."
