Rating: Robert Parker 90/100
"Las Rocas 2009 is a 100% Grenache from 80-year-old DO Calatayud vines, 25% of which are aged in wood. A ripe wine, with savory aromas, that should win unanimous praise. It's a sure value that will provide pleasure over the next 5 years". (The Wine Advocate - Robert Parker)

A good, powerful wine, to be drunk chilled as it is very alcoholic.
