"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Baron de Ley Reserva" from the vintage 2006 on 01.07.2013 with 89 of 100 points.
"Smooth on the nose, with aromas of buttery oak, floral hints and lightly baked berry fruit. Maintains freshness and clarity on the palate, which has good weight and true flavors of dill, cherry and dried berries. Hits the spot despite being a bit oaky."
yr. 2008 Wine Enthusiast:
86 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Baron de Ley Reserva" from the vintage 2008 on 01.01.2013 with 86 of 100 points.
"Short, medicinal aromas of raspberry, plastic and latex set up an astringent palate with hollow flavors of red fruits and spice. The finish has some mild zest, oak and standard Rioja accents of vanilla and tobacco."

87 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Baron de Ley Reserva" from the vintage 2007 on 01.01.2012 with 87 of 100 points.
"This is smooth and smells like true Rioja with its vanilla, dill and raspberry aromas. It feels fresh and healthy, but a little choppy and gritty, and it tastes of cherry, vanilla, tobacco and leafy herb."
yr. 2005 Wine Enthusiast:
91 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Baron de Ley Reserva" from the vintage 2005 on 01.01.2011 with 91 of 100 points.
"Briary, spicy and complex on the nose, with hints of tomato adding earth tones to red berry aromas. Zesty and vivacious in the mouth, with all the raspberry, dill, vanilla and tanned leather that a fine Rioja should deliver. Rock solid and driving; one of the best wines yet from Baron de Ley; drink now through 2015."
yr. 2004 Wine Enthusiast:
86 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Baron de Ley Reserva" from the vintage 2004 on 01.01.2010 with 86 of 100 points.
"Opens with earthy, slightly raisiny aromas along with mint, fresh grass and clay. The palate feels clanky and tannic, while the flavors of strawberry and herbal raspberry are good but bland. Shows its share of good components, but overall the wine struggles to distinguish itself among Rioja's top performers."
yr. 2003 Wine Enthusiast:
84 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Baron de Ley Reserva" from the vintage 2003 on 01.01.2008 with 84 of 100 points.
"A bit cheesy and funky, with rhubarb and leather along with baked berry aromas. The palate feels fine, but the flavors are leathery and sort of salty, with touches of pepper and herbs as well. Not as ripe and appealing as what we're looking for from a Rioja reserva."
yr. 2002 Wine Enthusiast:
84 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Baron de Ley Reserva" from the vintage 2002 on 01.01.2008 with 84 of 100 points.
"Fiery, hot aromas feature raspberry, burnt leaves, balsamic notes and earth. It's wild and jumpy in the mouth, with rhubarb and cranberry defining the tight, underdeveloped palate, while the finish is tangy and almost peachy. Shows many cool-year characteristics of a 2002."
yr. 2001 Wine Enthusiast:
82 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Baron de Ley Reserva" from the vintage 2001 on 01.01.2007 with 82 of 100 points.
"Stewed fruit aromas with some baked beans on the side just isn't alluring, and the lean, raw, acidic palate that some might describe as traditional isn't clicking in my book. Saving graces include milk chocolate on the finish."
yr. 1998 Wine Enthusiast:
82 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Baron de Ley Reserva" from the vintage 1998 on 01.01.2003 with 82 of 100 points.
"Grassy aromas with horse stable notes take descriptors like rusticity and traditional to the extreme. The palate is heavy, with deep plum and berry flavors surrounded by mounds of earth. Very big in the mouth and rather tired already."
yr. 2013 Guia Repsol:
90 of 100 Points.
"Guia Repsol" has rated the wine "Baron de Ley Reserva" from the vintage 2013 with 90 of 100 points.
"Aspecto Bonito vestido rojo granate con ribete teja. Aroma Aromas donde destacan la fruta roja madura, especias, notas de cuero y fondos tostados de noble madera. Boca En boca es sabroso, expresivo, estructura tánica bien integrada. Agradable y persistente postgusto."
