  Quite oxidised and sherry like. Some complexity. Worked better with food (paella) than on its own.

  Very interesting wine but not for everyone. The oak is very present and I agree with other comments that there are notes of petroleum and vanilla and some tropical fruits. The alcohol is also very present.

  An interesting, well-made, rounded, and balanced Rioja. It showed well over three days. An absolute steal by Rioja standards at $25.

  Villa del Selva Zihuatanejo
  
  Deep, risk golden hue
  Full bodied, petrol hints, lemon and honey
  Dry, balanced acidity, lots of ripe melons, and ripe apples
  Longish finish, food pairing wine
