Oak!

The reserve from Lesmos shows the most cake like American oak, and the sweetest, darkest fruit of their range. It drinks very nicely now and was a good partner for a paella stuffed pepper with an egg on top. Hurray for leftovers and Rioja! This wine was very easy to guzzle!

Andrew at K & L Wines made this recommendation for me along with other more expensive Riojas.
This is a great value and perfect with pizza, a burger or at a tailgate. Went back after drinking a bottle and bought a case.

Faded cherry, grand marnier, old leather, caramel, some dusty herbs. Acid still juicy.

Easter wine with pork tenderloin Sharp and orange rindy sans food. Shows its many dimensions when paired with a meal
