"The 2011 Cirsion is unashamedly modern and ripe, with a very exuberant nose where the oak is perfectly integrated with notes of blackberries, plums, dark cherries and damp earth, peat and a core of violets and blueberries. This is a wine from selected bunches with a special ripeness that they consider produces a wine that needs shorter time in barrel (some eight months) and is accessible and released earlier. Exceptionally in 2012, this wine has 5% of Graciano; until now it's been a pure Tempranillo. There will be no Cirsion in 2013 and they have serious doubts about 2014. Next year we will taste that 2012, a special wine they produced to celebrate their 25th anniversary. It will be released in June 2015. It actually feels like the wine closes down in the glass. I believe this wine will benefit from a couple of years in bottle and wouldn't touch it until 2017. This 2011 is a limited cuvée of 6,114 bottles. I met with general director Agustín Santolaya to taste Roda's latest releases. He's been there with the team since 1992 and they are still the same. The project is very much about continuity, and very much about common sense and (updated) tradition: all the wines are fermented in oak vats, all natural yeast. Santolaya thinks that to be classic you need to start being modern; López de Heredia, when they started were utterly modern and innovative. Their wines clearly show the Rioja character as they age in bottle. We always discuss the recent vintages a bit, and how the older wines are evolving. 2013 is globally acknowledged as a difficult vintage for Rioja, but for him 2014 is also a complicated and heterogeneous vintage with a lot of rain during the harvest, perhaps as difficult as 2013, because of the rain during the harvest. Of course, 2013 was cold, rainy, and extremely difficult. 2012 is fresher than 2011 and with more rain and he compares it to 2006. Having opened the comparisons, he tells me that 2011 could be similar to 2005. 2008 was truly an Atlantic and cold vintage and it might be somewhat similar to 1997.
The only "recent" change is Sela, born in 2008, as the vineyards they planted early on were already aged 15 to 25 years and the grapes they produced deemed good enough to carry the Roda name. There are two vineyards in Haro (90,000 bottles ) with the idea to obtain a more approachable wine, fine and drinkable, matured exclusively in used barrels. Again, this is a project about stability and consistency, even though their wines often contradict the general idea I have about vintages and I find myself preferring wines that, on paper, would not be my favorite.
