2005 Faustino Rioja Reserva V

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Wednesday, August 3, 2016 - PnP and aerated into the glass. Wouldn't have guessed this was a rioja if tasting blind. Cherry, clean acid, smooth tannins, bit of zing at the end. Except for the zing it tasted like full bodied california pinot. Quite enjoyable, very drinkable. For an inexpensive wine it aged very well. On the other hand if I had opened wanting a prototypical rioja, I'd be disappointed.
