Top Notes For

Great value top Year Rioja @ £30 that showcases old world Rioja @ a great price 👍 just the finish is a little shorter than I'd hoped

"Made from hand-selected grapes from the oldest vines on the Estates"

🍇 88% Tempranillo & 12% Graciano

🍷 Garnet cherry w/ brown touch

👃 Old smokey oak through ripe red fruits lead by cherry w/ creamy vanilla waffle & spiced plum jam

👄 Med silky smooth cherry driven red fruits w/ earthy oaky liquorice & cocoa tones

🎯 Short+ red earthy oak cherry
