Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2001 Roda I Rioja, Roda

I prefer the aromatics on the 2001 Roda I Reserva compared to the Roda II. It shows a little more delineation and character with tightly wound aromas of raspberry coulis, crushed stone and a touch of lavender. The palate is medium-bodied with sweet red vanillary fruit on the entry. It has an attractive texture with candied orange peel, raspberry and maraschino towards the finish. Drink now-2020. - Neal Martin, Aug 2012
