Shop Review: 90- Vinous Bright violet. Vibrant red and dark berry scents are complemented by hints of cola and candied flowers. Fresh and energetic on the palate, offering juicy raspberry and bitter cherry flavors that deepen and become sweeter on the back half. Gentle tannins build slowly on the clinging finish but are no match for the plush, primary fruit. This delicious Rioja drinks surprisingly well already.
My Review: On the nose this wine has bright berry and cherry notes with a vanilla oak linger. On the palate there is a strong plum flavor with undertones of raspberry, wood, ad vanilla. This wine was very good and the tannins were present but didn't hit you as hard as you might think.
This wine was not tasted with food.
