Beautiful Rioja. Smooth, elegant, and just a bit leathery.

A mid-tier Muga slot. Deep purple in color, sage, blackberry, new leather, mild vanilla. Medium + body, alc and tannins, medium acidity. Dry of course. Long finish. Tertiary flavors are not yet pronounced. Would be fabulous with ribeye, but tonight it's paired with cheeses and Serrano ham.

Nice black cherry and cranberry aromas and cedar on the bud. Very smooth with a nice finish.
