"One of only a handful of wines in Rioja that uses "experimental" Cabernet Sauvignon, Luis Cañas combines it here with 85% Tempranillo. This is still comparatively oaky, made before the shift in style in 2013, but the Cabernet gives the wine backbone and soaks up the splinters. Firm, refreshing and well structured. 2020-26."
