Crianza Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2010

Serna Imperial

Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2010

This is actually the Reserva. 75% Tempranillo and 25% Garnacha blend. Bold aromas and flavors of black berry, black licorice, cedar, earth and tobacco. Broad and generous texture. Moderate acidity. There is still muscular (yet dusty) tannin present. A pretty short, but oak oak dominant, finish. Thank You Ron B! Revisited in March 2023. Above notes still apply. — 2 years ago

Riserva Il Vino Prêt-à-Porter Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese

Smoke and fruit on the nose, powerful tannins and a long finish. I had this at Benvenuto Brunello and am just now going through my notes. I will look for this when it arrives. — 10 years ago
