Reviewed July 2025A village wine sourced from estate sites in San Vicente de la Sonsierra and Labastida, the 2021 Crianza is all Tempranillo grown in an extreme diversity of soils. Freshness and finesse are the markers of the area, and both are well represented here. Medium-bodied power supports generous, velvety layers of ripe raspberry complemented by an undercurrent of chocolate and wood spice. Pretty, there’s a hint of saline and leather that lead to a lengthy finish. (VB)

The pure Tempranillo 2021 Crianza, a modern classical red from a great year, shows the power, elegance and freshness of the year, with pristine fruit and very integrated oak after it spent 14 years in barrel, some of them American. It has tension and the elegant tannins from the year. It's approachable and will also be long lived. This is one of the finest years for this red that represents very good value. (LG)

Spiced plums, cherries and berries with some licorice. Good acidity makes this medium-bodied Rioja a very drinkable and enjoyable wine. Juicy, medium-long finish with fine-boned tannins. (ZS)

Sierra Cantabria Crianza Rioja is ready to be consumed right now. This a very approachable wine with tenacious acidity, aromatic due to the high elevation from the Cantabrian mountain range. The tannin is unmistakenly present, chewy to some extent. You should appreciate a long finish. Cheers! (ME)
