Community Tasting Note

  October 8, 2015 - La Rioja Alta 125 Harvest Celebration (Hotel Wellington - Madrid): Listening Julio Saenz I am quite sure when LRA considers the vintage isn't good enough to make 890 GR, the best Tempranillo clusters go to Ardanza. 2007 is going to be one of these years. Seems like that for the high quality of this stuff.
  A perfume on the nose. Spiced aromas of red fruit at this point.
  Liked in the mouth for its backbone and elegance, aristocratic ending.
  As ever a good thing to be patient with Ardanza to soft acidity. Agreed.
  
  Después de escuchar a Julio Sáenz estoy bastante seguro de que cuando LRA considera que la cosecha no es lo suficiente buena para hacer 890 GR, los mejores racimos de Tempranillo van al Ardanza. 2007 va a ser uno de esos años. Parece que por la alta calidad de este material.
  Un perfume en nariz. En este momento aromas de fruta roja especiada. Me gustó en boca por su espinazo y su elegancia, de un final aristocrático.
  Como siempre una buena cosa es ser paciente con Ardanza para sofocar esa acidez. Estoy de acuerdo.
