Great value. Day one it was lean, hot, and off balance. Day two brought more generosity and balance. A very clean style of Rioja with no oak notes.

Vintage 2018 / A bit a-typical Rioja, 95% tempranillo 5% viura without aging in wood, but it has very expressive raspberries in smell, vivid taste with high acidity. Mesmerising! Paired with Malaysian style Quail. / at restaurant O&O

nose: strawberries and cream, rose perfume; taste: flowers, strawberries and raspberries, tickle on the tongue + a light tannin, strawberry vanilla swirl ice cream on the back
Overall: one of the best smelling wines I’ve ever had, light weight and fruity but still has tannin. Easy drinking probably a summer crowd pleaser. one critique: too light to stand against the food I had (ribs and potatoes), didn’t cut through the fat at all.
