One, if not the best vintage of Viña Ardanza that I’ve ever tasted.

Very smooth, goes down easy, maybe too easy. A bit too sweet for me, but I wouldn’t turn down a glass of it if offered!

2015: Started out firm and pretty well-balanced, but after opening up 4 hours later tasted sweet, jammy and over-oaked. Confirms my fears of most Spanish wines (despite high ratings). Pass. $35 at Vine.

Black raspberry, bitter chocolate, traditional Rioja spices (clove, cinnamon). Some green-peppercorn. Lovely. At a restaurant. 92.

Rioja clásico espectacular. Maderos, frutoso y ácido balanceado al paladar.
