Love this blend of Tempranillo, Grenache and Carignane! My favorite of the premium red tasting.

Amazing 40 year old Rioja. Still holding onto red fruits and beautiful acidity. Signature sweet and sour notes evident. Remarkable.

Well balanced on the nose. Notes of ripe red berries and cherries. Herbaceous and a little woody. On the palate, a linear continuation of the nose. Tannins add structured depth brining a little spice to the silky finish. Drinking now and well. Would pair well with meats like lamb or suckling pig. Aromas start on the nose
