95 points James Suckling: "A Bierzo red with crushed raspberries, dried herbs such as rosemary and hints of pepper. Shows tension and complexity, firm tannins and a clean finish. Juicy, too. Powerful and provocative wine. Better in 2018. (12/1/16)"
94 points Peñín Guide to Spanish Wine: "(97% mencía, 3% valenciana, palomino). Colour: deep cherry, purple rim. Nose: creamy oak, ripe fruit, balsamic herbs. Palate: balanced, spicy, long. (2017)"
92 points Wine Spectator: "Smoky and woodsy notes frame tart cherry and licorice flavors in this focused red. The supple texture is supported by light tannins and firm acidity. Harmonious and expressive. Drink now through 2022. 1,500 cases made. (3/31/17)"
