Seabrook
La Rioja Alta
Reserva Viña Ardanza Rioja Tempranillo Garnacha 2009
Third night of Memorial Day weekend at Seabrook, WA. We’ve been drinking plenty of Spanish juice, but hadn’t had any traditionalists. This is by the numbers American oak with classic Tempranillo black & red fruit with some smoke & tobacco lead notes. Always a great wine. — 5 years ago

The question is why is this sitting in a pedestrian wine bar/shop in Seabrook, Washington? The answer is because this year has been such a bust that we deserve to stumble across special stuff now and then. It defies description and is simply amazing in every way. Disgorged December 2018. — 4 years ago
You lucked out
It’s a fantasy of mine to walk in to some small town grocery store in the middle of nowhere and find a row of first growths for $10
@Joshua Fisher - Unfortunately, this was priced exactly as it would be anywhere else.

Agreed—I really enjoyed the subtlety of this one!
@Anthony Lombardi Totally agree Anthony. Really like the producer and Spanish Garnacha in general.
