Faustino 1, overrated and overpriced?

Whilst a nice deep bodied rioja I feel its overrated and over priced, 24.99 is just way too much especially since you can get torres gran reserve for half that price and its just as good if not better, do you agree?

While i do like the Faustino I,
I find that it does need a lot of time to breath, possibly a few hours.
Even using a Vinturi, i've had to pour it thru twice.

But the only time to buy Faustino I is when its on special offer in Tesco, and when they have the 25% off when you buy 6.

It is pricey for what it is
