Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2020

9.3

Another good visit I’ve had. It is adjacent to Lopez de Heredia. You can walk between in about a minute.

This is a good strand producer in Tempranillo from Rioja. Consistent good to very good quality yr in yr out.

The 2020 shows good quality but like always needs 8-10 years in bottle to show its beauty and elegance.

9.2

From 80 year old Blaufrankisch vines in Austria. By the glass. Dusty red fruit aromas with touches of barnyard and pepper. Just medium bodied with with spicy red fruit on the palate and medium minus dry Tannins. A glass went well with Confit of Duck at Spring Restaurant in London where the chef is Australia’s Skye Gyngell. Highly recommended if you are near Somerset House near the Strand London. — 6 years ago

Delectable has done this before where the note stays on submitting for ages and then disappears. I then write the note all over again and then 3 notes pop up. 😟😟

This was delicious. But, I’m a forever fan of Blaufränkisch. Very pleased to see my Dad give a 9.2 to a “natural” wine and one of the most (currently) talked about natural wine producers in Austria!! ;)
