Vintage 2017 | deep colour, brown rim, smells strict, strong wine with high bitters

Got this again wrong, looks and smells a lot like gamay.... but the choco, coffee and leather should allert us. Nice full mouth of flavours.

Vintage 2017 | I am fond of frivolous young Rioja, but seldom recognize them blind. To be honest, that frivolity and some raspberry in smell made me think: a Cru de Beaujolais. But this Rioja has its own qualities. Some cacao in taste, tannins still, good balance. Have to drink more of it to recognize.

16/20 (88/100) Аромат свежих яблок, сливы, вишни и брусники. Умеренная тельность, высокая кислотность, бархатистые танины. Качественная, молодая, ягодная гарнача.
