Tannins enough to be stored another year or so. Otherwise a fruity and somewhat sweet flavor as expected from a Tempranillo. Nice wine accompanied with some small dishes to start up the dinner with. Edit - after +1 hour the wine got itself together. 89p.

Monthly tasting club LTC 2016-02; French or not French? (@ My place): In the bouquet red berries, vanilla and some white pepper. On the palate blackberries and cherries, vanilla, coconut, herbs and sweet licorice. A touch of sweetness, but also firm acidity. Round tannin and a touch of bitterness in the finish. Early maturity now, but the oak can use some more time to integrate.

Vanilla and red berries in the bouquet. Some sweet spices as well. Same on the palate. Ok acidity and the tannin still offers some bite.

Un beau Rioja boisé sur un jolie fruité (noir), avec des épices en milieu de bouche et une acidité bien dosé. Un peu simple mais bien bon!
