If you can find this, and you dig Rioja based Tempranillo blends, get it. Brought as a starter and perhaps backup to bday grilled steak & eggplant dinner along with a @Rattalino 34 Barolo 2013. Well, the Barolo was tired…but this kicked 🫏. 30- mins open, blue black fruits and some garrigue on the nose echoed on the palate with bright acidity and body that reminded me of a fine Morgon, with a little extra zip.
Paired excellently with Rib-eyes that got the @Babbo rub( find that in the Babbo cookbook 👍) and other assorted fare. As my brand new son in law said “ that one is fire”🔥 Ha Ha.
Thanks
