Description

"The flagship wines of this bodega are their 904 and 890 Gran Reservas.These wines spend 8-10 years in cask and are then bottle-aged longer.They are beautifully made wines with a complexity not unlike a mature vintage of a top class Bordeaux Graves.Except for its strong vanillin component,the 1982 Gran Reserva 890 reveals a lead pencil,charcoal smoke,hot bricks,cedar,strawberry,cherry,and fruitcake-scented nose that is one of the most complex aromatic profiles anyone could suck in past their olfactory senses.In the mouth,the wine is medium-bodied and elegant,with delicate,intense,but light flavors.This is a gorgeous,complex,old style Rioja the likes of which are impossible to find from other producers in this renowned Spanish appellation".
(92 Points).

Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate).

The last tasting note on CellarTracker on the 1982 Rioja Alta Gran Reserva 890:-

"Perfect fill,immaculate cork,bright ruby color with a tinge of mature bricking on the edges.Initially,there'a a bit of unintegrated wood on the nose - some piney coconut whiffs that I'm not thrilled about.Profusely aromatic with lots of sweet/sour/smoky character; cinnamon,smoked chorizo,pickled cherries,warm and familiar like an old leather jacket in a cedar closet. Palate is sweet and succulent,with silky tannin,roasted peppers,piquant.The raw wood reasserts itself on the finish and disrupts what is otherwise a harmonious,long,incredible wine".
