Not as pop and pour ready as I remember but good vintage that would benefit from proper cellaring and aging. — 4 days ago

Viña Gravonia Crianza Rioja Viura 2011

Would like to spend more time with one of these. Many Riesling use cases fly through the mind. Lees in clear focus. — 11 days ago

For $19, a bargain. Robust all around but balanced. Long finish. Earthy. Dark and inky. Rich blackberry. Buy again. Better than other $30-40 riojas w more age. — 11 days ago

Bodegas Beronia

Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2016

Plum, cocoa, raspberry, and subtle dust on the nose. Rich, yet dry. Notes of cocoa powder, ash, dried raspberry, unsweet dark chocolate, blackberry, subtle cranberry, tar, & earth. Medium body & tannins. Beautiful balance of fruit & wooly dryness; alcohol hides well; pairs wonderfully with food. — 16 days ago
