Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, August 11, 2020 - I have bought several vintages of this wine, back to the early 90s, and it has never disappointed. Decanted for 2 hours.
On the nose this was not unlike some styles of Rioja, I'm thinking Vina Ardanza here. Spice, dark fruit and cedarwood.
On the palate, it has the spicy fruit, but with some decent tannin and that spine of acidity to balance it. A refreshing claret, made for drinking with food, rack of lamb in our case. First bottle of six, plenty of time for the rest.
