Welcome to the weekend and I have opened tonight the 2005 Ontañón Rioja Reserva, 95% Tempranillo and 5% Graciano.
On the nose there is cherry, plum, raspberry, licorice, spice, vanilla, rich oak and an eartiness.
On the palate there is good red fruit, cherry, raspberry, strawberry, plum, a vegital/herbal thing going on, vanilla and toasty oak.
The wine is medium full bodied, well balanced with medium acidity and medium smooth tannins that progress into a medium to long finish. Let's all have a great weekend and please be safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷

Light red fruit surrounded by deep, lingering earthyness. Classic tempranillo!
