95 points James Suckling: "Dried flowers and dark fruit on the nose with some mahogany and bark. Medium-bodied with fine tannins and lovely polish and length. Compact and long. Tangy, too. Special wine, showing its age and tradition. Decant an hour before serving. Drink or hold. (10/14/21)"

94 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): "[$45 list] The fresh and balanced 2010 Viña Bosconia Reserva is a textbook example of the wine, perhaps the successor of the great 2006, a powerful blend of 80% Tempranillo, 15% Garnacha and 5% between Graciano and Mazuelo. It matured in used American oak barrels for five years and is clean and complex with a nutty and mushroomy nose, polished tannins and good acidity. 80,000 bottles were filled in May 2017. Drink: 2022-2032. (Jul 2022)"

93 points Tim Atkin, MW: "(13.5%). Bosconia sits at 650 metres, close to the Sonsierra, and tends to produce more tannic, longlived wines that stablemate Cubillo. Made with Tempranillo and 20% Garnacha, Mazuelo and Graciano, the 2010 has mature black fruit and wild herb flavours, plenty of acidity, subtle oak and grippy, compact tannins. 2022-28. (2022)"
