Score 91/100 · Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate

The 2014 Reserva is mostly Tempranillo with 5% Mazuelo from the plots Altos de Valecilla, Calvo, Martelo and Berzal around the winery in Paganos-La Guardia. The destemmed and crushed grapes underwent a ten-day cold soak and fermented in stainless steel. 80% of the volume matured in oak barrels for 18 months. I noticed quite a lot of oak, and winemaker Julio Saez said they used up to 40% new barrels. The wine comes through with strong toasty and smoky aromas and roasted coffee notes. The palate has abundant, chalky tannins that might need some more time in bottle and/or powerful food. 40,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in October 2016. Feb 2018, www.robertparker.com
