"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Bodegas Roda 'Roda I' Reserva" from the vintage 2010 on 01.01.2018 with 95 of 100 points.
"(2018) A great vintage with sufficient rain but very few problems needing any intervention. An Atlantic year. Deep, dense colour. Intense very youthful profile with cedar and black fruits, a graphite and mint chocolate character, and a sense of serious concentration. The palate carries a welterweight of cassis and mint, dramatically dark and plush, long and very very pure, the touch of austerity just adding rigorous charms, but there is light and shade aplenty here."
yr. 2011 Tom Cannavan:
95 of 100 Points.
"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Bodegas Roda 'Roda I' Reserva" from the vintage 2011 on 01.01.2018 with 95 of 100 points.
"(2018) A Mediterranean year. A great drought, with only around 15 inches of rain. Early flowering in hot temperatures but then July was cold, August and September hot, meaning a harvest 15 days earlier than in 2010. Darker and more dense in colour still, quite closed, glossy and dark, quite impenetrable at this stage. The palate a similar muscular, deep character but has that mineral, slightly dusty but deeply hued character, so grippy, masculine and rich. Power and weight here, dark vine fruits, huge structure and the coffee touch of creaminess. A cautious 94, but this has the potential to be as great a Roda 1 as the 2010."
yr. 1995 Tom Cannavan:
94 of 100 Points.
"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Bodegas Roda 'Roda I' Reserva" from the vintage 1995 on 01.01.2018 with 94 of 100 points.
"(2018) By contrast to 1994, quite a wet year, with 25% more rain but Agustin says it all fell at the right times to make for a very expressive vintage. Similar colour, a touch smoky and dusty, a little more fat and expressiveness about it on first impression. Certainly more sweetness to the fruit, more plummy flesh, but that mineral and bloody background is there, in another lovely and pure wine, a little sweeter and softer, and that extra ounce of voluptuous fleshiness might just give it the edge for me as there is still great structure. Not listed by any UK retailers at time of writing, but again there are overseas retailers who will ship."
yr. 2005 Tom Cannavan:
94 of 100 Points.
"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Bodegas Roda 'Roda I' Reserva" from the vintage 2005 on 01.01.2018 with 94 of 100 points.
"(2018) A very dry year - even drier than 1994 - a Mediterranean vintage with hot summer and low rainfall. Lots of coffee and more torrefaction character, dense and svelte. Again the colour very youthful. Supple, plush, the deep fleshiness of the plum and mocha fruit and the warming creaminess of the oak. Such a dark pool of fruit here, spices and modern in style, but absolutely beautifully done. Hugely impressive and sumptuous, but on personal taste, the edge of the 2004 just sneaks this battle. Bottle price equivalent given, but only half and full case stockists at time of review."

"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Bodegas Roda 'Roda I' Reserva" from the vintage 2004 on 01.01.2018 with 94 of 100 points.
"(2018) At first the winemaking team had doubts about this vintage, following hailstorms and very unsettled summer. On 11 September the weather changed with rain that gave fears of rot, but a north wind dried the vineyard and the rest of the harvest was perfect. Youthful colour, an intense, taut black fruit nose, with a certain richness and fruit concentration, but that Roda minerality still there. Glossy and rich on the palate, firm, juicy black fruit always bittersweet edged with cocoa and plum skin bite. Long and such pure fruit, creamy and polished."
yr. 1994 Tom Cannavan:
94 of 100 Points.
"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Bodegas Roda 'Roda I' Reserva" from the vintage 1994 on 01.01.2018 with 94 of 100 points.
"(2018) A very harsh year, very dry and austere. 15% Garnacha joined the Tempranillo in this year, as the climate produced a dark Garnacha that fitted the profile. Lovely edge of brick to the colour. Dry, mineral, a touch of iron oxide, a touch of dried blood. Beautiful fruit on the palate, very dry, the tannins coating the mouth, but such a delightful cherry and blackcurrant intensity of fruit. Racing acidity adds to the wiry, tense feel of the wine. Fabulous length. No UK retailers of this vintage listed at time of writing, but use the wine-searcher link to find overseas sellers who ship worldwide."
yr. 2008 Tom Cannavan:
93 of 100 Points.
"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Bodegas Roda 'Roda I' Reserva" from the vintage 2008 on 01.01.2018 with 93 of 100 points.
"(2018) Though not part of the 'vintage pairs' comparitive tasting, 2008 was definitely an Atlantic year for Roda, the winter very dry, then Spring brought rain "that did not stop," with 250mm falling in May alone, followed by a terrible summer and very late harvest for all agricultural produce in the area. There is a herbal note here, as well as cherry and a little dried blood and game note, the pertness of the cherry is lovely. On the palate there is a supple roundness, spiciness, and that herbal touch just adds to the fresh and quaffable character, with plenty of fruit in an obvioulsy well-managed vintage."
yr. 1999 Tom Cannavan:

"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Bodegas Roda 'Roda I' Reserva" from the vintage 1999 on 01.01.2018 with 93 of 100 points.
"(2018) A difficult winter with 15 days below zero and Spring frosts. "Rioja went mad," says Mario, with the price of grapes rocketing. Selection was the key to being able to make a great wine. A warm rim of brick, quite a developed colour but such beautiful aromas, soft Burgundian character, medium bodied and silky, so aromatic exotic spices and sweet red fruit. Drinking absolutely beautifully. Is it past it's best? Well that's a matter of opinion, as it has traded some structure and precision for sheer deliciousness."
yr. 1997 Tom Cannavan:
92 of 100 Points.
"Tom Cannavan" has rated the wine "Bodegas Roda 'Roda I' Reserva" from the vintage 1997 on 01.01.2018 with 92 of 100 points.
"(2018) A difficult vintage again, but Roda have conjured a very good wine. Wonderful nose, so truffly and gently gamy, Sandalwood spiced and sweet tobacco. A solidly fruit driven style, but again quite Burgundian and silky smooth. Delicious richness and in many ways in a similar place to the 1999. Like it, not for extended cellaring but most enjoyable."

"Delikate Reifearomen: Milchschokolade, Süßkirsche, etwas Dattel und Minze. Am Gaumen Samt und Seide, dabei sind hinter der charmanten Anmutung durchaus noch Extraktreserven vorhanden: Der Gerbstoff zeigt im Abgang noch einige Körnigkeit, und er ist begleitet von einem festen mineralischen Kern. Die Säure bleibt eher knapp. Jetzt wunderschön zu trinken, wird sich aber auch noch einige Jahre weiter verfeinern."

Noble Fruchtsüße, perfekte Eleganz, sehr lang, feinste Konzentration, die feinste Art von Saftigkeit und purer Frucht. Sehr feines, elegantes Tannin. Großer Rioja. Vornehme Frische und seidige Eleganz."
