2014 Bodegas Ondarre Rioja Reserva
Community Tasting Note
Glenn Gilbert Does not like this wine:
79 Points
Tuesday, October 23, 2018 - 13.5% alcohol, imported by Hildalgo Imports, Miami, FL; light to medium weight foil, likely not real cork; fast to medium legs, ruby red/brown, nose of alcohol, some prunes, and trace of muscat raisins and plums, vinturied and tasted right away at ca 16 degrees C; fast finish, sharp tannins, not fruit forward, tastes rather thin and somewhat sour; sorry to buck everyone else's opinion, Costco's wine clout, and Decanter magazine, but frankly I was really disappointed with this one
