Made by one of the most legendary winemakers in the region, Teofilo Reyes,who was the winemaker at Pesquera winery between 1974 and 1993. This is the third year the he has made wine under his own label,and the 1994 and 1995 were both enormously successful. Great concentration and richness:-
"Dark cherry aromas and beautifully integrated oak with attractive mint-menthol notes grace the complex nose. The flavors are very complex as well, with tart cherry, licorice, balsamic, prune and cocoa notes dancing on the palate. Big in scale but very well balanced, with a long dry finish and firm but not sharp tannins. Truly excellent".

The Wine Enthusiast. (August 2000).
"Full red-ruby. Explosive aromas of raspberry, cherry, dark chocolate and spicy, charred oak. Thick, dense and sweet, with penetrating, deep flavor. Wonderful combination of sweetness and vinosity. Really expands in the mouth and suffuses the palate. Finishes with very fine, palate-saturating tannins and terrific persistence. In comparison to this wine, the '97 is more dominated by its wood element. A very fresh, impressively structured wine that's developing slowly. Showing spectacularly today-even better than a bottle I sampled not long after the bottling last spring".

Stephen Tanzer. (International Wine Cellar. November 1999).
"The wine boasts an opaque purple color, followed by exquisite blackberry liqueur notes intermixed with smoke, licorice, and new oak scents. It displays a brilliantly focused, ripe, concentrated style with full body, gobs of fruit, a viscous, creamy texture, and a lusty finish with beautifully integrated acidity and tannin".
