Decanter, 96 points: Juicy and sweet dark plum and blackberry aromas with creamy oak notes. Impressive silkiness on the palate, with a lot of complexity and a very persistent finish.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: Putting my nose in the glass of the 2007 El Puntido Gran Reserva transported me to the classical Riojas from yesteryear. The wine has a fully developed nose with all the textbook descriptors of a good aged Rioja—forest...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: Following the appreciation of the 2007 vintage from María José López de Heredia, the red 2007 Viña Tondonia Reserva is showing great, revealing unusual finesse and elegance. The nose is a little reticent but nuanced and...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: This wine is released as Martelo in Spain but that be renamed as Finca Martelo in the international market. So, I tasted the 2014 again but this time labeled as 2014 Finca Martelo. The wine hasn't changed much since the...
jamessuckling.com, 98 points: A very powerful red with the structure and intensity of a great Rioja from the 1950s, 1960s or 1970s. Real gran reserva. Dried fruits such as plums, prunes and cherries. Hints of figs too. Layered and so structured...

Tim Atkin MW, 96 points: Bosconia faces south and has plenty of fruit sweetness, even in a very cool Atlantic vintage like 2008. Combining Tempranillo with 20% Garnacha, Graciano and Mazuelo, it’s a delightfully subtle, traditional Rioja Reserva...
jamessuckling.com, 94 points: This is a really composed, rich and concentrated wine with a wealth of dried red flowers and red berry fruits. The palate has a plush and fluid style to it with red plum, darker berry, brambly flavors. Fresh finish. Drink...
Wine Enthusiast, 93 points: Ripe aromas of cola nut, burnt brown sugar, cedar and blackberry feed into a giant palate with killer tannins. Flavors of blackberry, cassis and burnt toast end in a tarry pool of black-fruit flavors and monster tannins...
jebdunnuck.com, 98 points: Made from 100% very old vine Tempranillo and aged 20 months in French oak, the 2016 Aalto Ps is a thrilling, brilliant effort that offers both richness and elegance. Boasting beautifully pure notes of crème de cassis...
