La Rioja Alta Reserva Viña Ardanza Tempranillo Blend 2009

''Very fresh and vivid 2009 with berries, dark spice and hints of walnuts. Full-bodied, reserved and so held back and muscular, but you don’t feel the tannins and the strength. '' 96 Points, James Suckling

''Ardanza is a classic Rioja. It’s rich, plush,floral, fine and very complete with fennel and sweet Asian spices, tangy acidity and deftly handled American oak.'' 95 Points, Tim Atkin
