The current vintage 2014 is from a cooler year and

2 stars

The current vintage 2014 is from a cooler year and it shows little of the texture and mellow evolution one would expect after seven years. It is a decent but ungenerous wine and I cannot see it improving as the fruit is not there. A decent glass but not a Gran Reserva

Appalling

1 stars

Premium Rioja worth the money

Yikes! Avoid!

1 stars

Yikes! That's about all I can say, not smooth, not rich, bitey and harsh. The bottle was *not* cork tainted - It was vintage 2013

Avoid

1 stars

Big disappointment. Metallic, harsh, unpleasant.

Avoid this!

I have bought this regularly for about a year and it has now become very unreliable. I think about 60% of my current batch is almost undrinkable as it is very bitter. I need to return it.

Smooth and silky. Good value

4 stars

This wine was recommended by a friend and was glad to see it on offer. It is a semi-sweet wine and goes well with all kinds of food. It's also great by itself. I enjoyed it a lot more slightly chilled. It would go down well with female wine drinkers.

Glorious Gran REserva from Baron del REy

5 stars

This example of a Gran REserva Rioja represents the finest value Rioja quality wine currently available which at a Knockout 25% discount for 12 bottles represents a steal. Needs to be opened an hour or two to allow the fruit and character of the wine to develope. A spicey blackcurrent,strawberry and vanilla are evident,full and with length. Will still improve up to at least 5 years if carefully cellered in the dark without extreme changes of temperature between 6 to 8 c.. Make sure you buy the 2010 vintage. Stock up now whilst it is on offer and before this vintage sells out.

Great Rioja

4 stars

This is a great Rioja, just the sort of wine you would expect to be served at a tapas bar in Barcelona. Sadly I've just opened my last bottle to find it corked, shame the other five we really enjoyed. Probably the best Rioja I've had from tesco.
