Monique Sosa rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Juicy black fruit and allspice aromas with cassis black plum, clove and anise flavours. A rich, full-bodied Spanish Syrah with layers complexity and smooth clean finish. Tannins are still young and grippy balanced with a moderate (medium+) acidity. Enjoy with winter beef and barley soup. Tasted Sep 2017 by @sommsosa | bespoketastngs.ca

Rachelle O'Connor rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Tart cherry, raspberry, blackberry, spice and oak on the nose and palate. A well crafted wine with lovely layers of fruit, notable tannins and pleasant finish. Great with grilled veggie burgers topped with aged cheddar and crispy kale.

Natalie's Review

Alceño Premium 50 Barricas Syrah 2014, Jumilla D.O., Spain: The 2014 vintage of the Alceno Premium is made mostly from Syrah grapes with 15% Monastrell grapes. The vines are planted in stony, calcareous soils. Robust with lots of layers of dark black fruit from oak aging, smoke, spice and anise flavours. Good price: needs grilled meats. Drink: 2017-2020. 398933 14.50% XD 750 mL $14.95 Score: 89/100. September 16, 2017 Harmonious Hard Cheese Wine Full Review
