Sipping Fine Wine

Had this a while ago. New batch, pale straw yellow color with small bubbles. Aromas of slight Citrus. On the palate flavors of lemon and tart Apple, lively acidity. Medium finish ending with fruit, earthy and mineral character. Ok but better Cava's out there similarly priced.

A fine example of a Rioja Reserva, a deep rounded body with some dark fruits, mixed with bold cherry flavours. This gives the wine a nice youthful feel contrasting the depth from the warm climate. The result is a mildly complex red with a fruity nose and lasting finish.
