2015 Bodegas Beronia Rioja Gran Reserva
4/15/2024 - willie_p74 Likes this wine: 95 Points
Comes in a nice moderate violet shade, nose shows sweet black cherry and plum, sugary. Drinking and this is not like other Rioja’s I’ve had, very fruity, oak and barrel notes don't show up until the finish I’m used to them being very dry on the finish, this is not that. Medium bodied, fruity, leading to a sour cherry end. Paired very well with grilled chicken. Definite in its prime. One for the decanter, nice on day 1, much better on day 2.

Intense at first, but with a little time, this is a very drinkable lovely red. Looks very dark purple in the glass, smells of plum and white pepper. Drinking it and it’s peppery, notes of red plum leading to a slightly spicy finish. Very good with a steak off the grill and great bang for your buck.

Decanted for 90 min,nose has a lot going on, deep dark fruits, very big flavors all around. Wine is not a fruit bomb, decadent, the decant opens up the flavors nicely, plum and blackberry backed up w some tobacco and oak. Slightly dry finish. Perfect with a steak off the grill. Seems like there’s some years left yet.
