On release, Wine Advocate praised the 2009 Diez-Caballero Reserva as a “very good value” with “the stuffing and balance to develop in bottle,” and that was at $50. At less than half that, it’s a stunning bargain on a perfectly aged red that delivers the savory, earthy, floral-inflected profile that only impeccably cellared Rioja can bring.
The glass shows a dusty ruby core. The aromas are led by sour cherry, along with dried red roses, tobacco, and a hint of leather. The mouthfeel is complex and memorable, with dried fruit and spice carried on well-knit tannins, leading to a long finish. An impressive library release showing graceful and proper aging. Drink now–2024.
