Tasting Notes
Robert Parker 94
"The color is medium to deep ruby, and the bouquet offers aromas of ripe strawberry and cherry candy, with kirsch liqueur thrown in for additional interest. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and fat, with high levels of sweet fruit, a velvety texture, multiple dimensions, and an explosive finish. It is an undeniably sexy, compelling Rayas that is already performing exceptionally well, despite having been bottled only a few months ago."
Wine Spectator 94
Deceptive because this isn't a showy wine-the aromas are soily, minerally, and shy-but there is amazingly intense ripe and lovely fruit here. Full-bodied, the ripenes of its black and red fruit coats and seduceds the palate. A symphony of flavors that plays harmoniously.
