96 points Tim Atkin, MW: "(13.5%). Often tasted last in a line up of López de Heredia reds because it comes from a slightly warmer site, this is a superb, mature cuvée of Tempranillo with 20% Garnacha, Graciano and Mazuelo that shows the balance and complexity of a great Rioja vintage. Savoury, mature and well structured with notes of earth, green herbs and tobacco and caressing red fruit sweetness. 2021-30. (2021)"
96 points James Suckling: "Gorgeous, ripe aromas and flavors of dried berries, sultanas, tobacco, cigar tobacco and Spanish cedar. Full-bodied, dense and layered with wonderful fruit and complexity for such a late-released wine. Drink or hold. (11/2/20)"
