More toasted spice, leather, savory herbs, chocolate, and meaty, gamey notes emerge from the 2014 Prado Enea Gran Reserva, a pure, medium-bodied, reserved, incredibly elegant Rioja that's drinking brilliantly today. It picks up some minty, floral notes with time in the glass and is just brilliant on the palate, with no hard edges. I'd be thrilled to drink bottles any time over the coming 15+ years or so.
