Hacienda Don Hernan

Gran Reserva Rioja Tempranillo 2016

NW. Still smooth. Bit more cherry and dark fruit coming through this, with still hints of vanilla and oak. Enjoyable drinking. — 6 months ago

Sabelli-Frisch

La Malinche Mokelumne River Mission 2019

This is the Hernan @Delectable . Nice attack and mid-palate, light-bodied but the finish fails with a wood note that is off putting to me. — 2 years ago
