  Briney, very old world and traditional approach to wine making. Coarse dry note complexity, medium light body - bright red fruit finish. Tart. Day two aromas of cinnamon and straw. Definite toasty cinnamon, a bit hot. Rushed through this one, could have been worth a more patient sampling. Definite value under $20!
  
  This wine does not drink modern...which is good for a change!

  Hearty Rioja, flat bouquet, serviceable Tempranillo.

  All the right notes for a wonderful Tempranillo from Rioja. Old fashioned, powerful, the way wine is supposed to be!
