"The 2001 Roda II Reserva reveals a saturated dense ruby/purple color, graphite, earth, oak, and black fruit aromas, and a reticent style. It is medium to full-bodied with sweet tannin, outstanding ripeness as well as purity, and a long finish. This is a modern-styled, high class, distinctive Rioja to drink over the next 7-8 years."
