($25) Slight almond oxidation in the nose, like sherry. Pale, slightly browning ruby color. Medium bodied red fruit palate. Moderate acidity. Fading now for sure, probably peaked a couple years ago. Pretty raspberry nose with some balsa wood. Palate grows more tart with time, with cranberry flavors.

Wine Education Service - Fine Old Rioja (Imperial College): Gamey, mahogany, fruity nose.
Fruity with a hint of mint, attractive mid palate (which fades), certainly npot past it.
