Very pretty reserva with berry, chocolate and light vanilla aromas and flavors. Medium body. Fine tannins and a juicy, fruity aftertaste. Drink now or hold.

Score 90/100 · Drink 2023-2031, Josh Raynolds, Apr 2021
Opaque ruby. Oak-tinged cherry and black raspberry scents are complemented by a smoky nuance and a hint of coconut. Seamless and fleshy on the palate, the 2017 Reserva offers juicy red and dark berry, bitter cherry and vanilla flavors that turn sweeter through the back half. It finishes supple and long, leaving suggestions of candied flowers and oak spice behind.
