97 points / Wine Spectator - "This is about as alluring as it gets aromatically, with singed alder, juniper, bay and charcoal notes out front, hinting at power but turning beguiling as they flow into the core of steeped red currant, dried currant and black tea. The charcoal note makes an encore, with a lovely twinge of old-school character holding the finish. Always a great debate vis-à-vis the '90, but the slightly darker profile here gives this wine a lovely bit of extra drama (JM, Web-2014)."

97 points / Wine Spectator - "This still broods seriously, with dark plum, currant and blackberry fruit, studded with charcoal, singed tobacco and cedar notes and backed by a serious grip of roasted earth. The gorgeously long finish is driven by old-school tannins, with the smoldering edge going on and on. A brick house of a Margaux, with more charcoal than graphite, more austerity than elegance and more power than refinement."

In a class by itself, DeLeon's beautiful honey amber Reposado should be sipped neat, or savored as the crowning ingredient in an ultra-premium cocktail. While the aging process and blend remains a guarded secret, the unmatched smoothness and purity of DeLeon's Reposado is celebrated by tequila aficionados around the world.
