Panel Tasters:
Pedro Ballesteros Torres MW 
Ben Henshaw 
Annette Scarfe MW
Pedro Ballesteros MW: Deliciously decadent, with extraordinary vitality in the palate and a long, unique finish. A jewel at this price. Ben Henshaw: Complex nose, quite grippy but fresh and moreish. A touch dry, but amazing fruit. Classy, complex and long.
Annette Scarfe MW: A more restrained, mineral style with elegant tannins. Youthful, feminine and complex with a long length. A classic Rioja that is still fresh after 12 years, with more to come.
