Bright fruit; good acid and a medium level of tannins; only mild oak. Bright and delicious.

Had this with paella and honestly thought it was a 50 dollar bottle - so good - quaffable and sophisticated at the same time.

The epitome of a rioja. Strawberry on the nose. Juicy, full bodied, just dry enough.

Some evidence of aging from rim variation and aroma. Med intensity aroma. Ripe red fruit. Dry but with a hit of fresh fruit sweetness. Medium plus body. Medium acidity, velvety tannins, mellowed by aging. Black cherry, some pepper and vanilla from oak. Long finish.
