YOUR RESULTS for "SPAIN, RIOJA"

From the Distributor: Dark ruby red color with lovely pigment. Intense aromas of red fruits like raspberry and cherry jam with licorice complemented by toasty notes. Velvety on the palate, with exquisitely fine-grained, smooth tannins, beautifully matured in both oak and bottle.

Dark berries, some cooked and some fresh, join with dried herbs on the nose. This wine is medium plus-bodied with black fruits, toast, mineral, leather, violets, olives and a dab of smoke. It is overall a clean and modern style with medium tannins and acidity.

This has been aged in newer oak, dill and coconut aromas mingle with stewed mixed fruit. This smells classic; old world spice, dried rose petals, touch of earth. The palate delivers olive tapenade, black pepper, tobacco and mixed red and black berries. The structure is medium plus in body, with just right tannin structure that could age longer, but is drinking well right now.
