Fantastic value at Calais - rich, warm, full, soft Rioja, voluptuous flavour, would chum pretty well any red-friendly food. Highly recommended for a Thursday.

A very good value wine, improved by letting it breathe for an hour. It's a classical Rioja with traditional flavors of dried cherry, blackberries, tobacco, herbal notes and vanilla. The tannins are light, but lively balsamic acidity lends structure to the polished texture. Best to drink in the next 4 years.
