    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Hermanos Pecina, Rioja, Gran Reserva, 2011

    Classic aromas of red fruits, roses and forest floor. On the palate, that classic interplay of red fruits, fine oak, textured tannins and tangerine acidity. Pierre Mansour: Some real class here. Stylish bouquet with complexity and focus. Soft, rich, yet understated, showing wonderfully ripe tannins and a long finish. Wow!

    Josh Raynolds, Vinous
    Limpid ruby-red. Highly perfumed cherry, red currant, smoked meat, coconut and candied rose scents, along with tobacco and succulent herb nuances that build as the wine opens up. Juicy and seamless in texture, offering energetic cherry-vanilla, floral pastille, cola and mocha flavors that are sharpened by a jolt of spiciness. Shows sharp clarity and sweet, repeating red fruit character on the impressively long, gently tannic and smoke-tinged finish, which leaves a suave floral note behind.
