Community Tasting Note

Wine Diplomats Likes this wine:

Saturday, April 13, 2024 - 65% Tempranillo, 25% Garnacha, 10% Mazuelo and Graciano. Average 40-year-old vines. 90,000 bottles made. At least 3 years in used American oak and 3 years in bottle before release. Moderately expressive nose of bright red fruit and balsamic, tobacco, mild oak notes. The palate is more expressive with medium-light bodied and tangy red fruit, a touch of vanilla and no hard edges. Easy to drink. Great with food. Relatively low alcohol at 13.5%. This reminds me more of Chianti than most modern Rioja today. Not yet on tertiary notes, so still has time to age.
