Bright, dark red in color, this wine is vivacious in the mouth and packed with rich, red and black fruit flavors spiced by notes of toasty oak. The tannins are lustrous and the finish is generous. It’s a wine that might be aged for a handful of years, but it is certainly drinking beautifully right now. You’ll get a lot of pleasure for a relatively small price with this gem from Rioja.
