Reserva Añares Rioja Tempranillo Blend

This 6 year old Rioja is drinking very nicely now.

Showing black cherries, currants, oak, vanilla, licorice, cloves, herbs, spices, earth, chocolates, tobacco and black pepper.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate and spicy with a nice mouthfeel.

This is a nice Rioja Reserva. Good by itself and better with food. Nicely balanced and fruit forward with a nice mouthfeel.

Will continue to drink nicely in the next few years.

14% alcohol by volume.

89 points.

Lovely old Rioja. Complex, iron and blood, meaty notes. Lively, smooth palate. Kept going throughout our meal.

Excellent with authentic Spanish cuisine.

Well-defined; super classic. Singing out of the bottle.

Dried red fruits, lead pencil leather. Still nice acid.

2010. Not overly complex but balanced and classic nuisance.

Un très bon Tempranillo, et à $14,10 - SAQ, excellent rapport qualité-prix

Hitting all the Rioja notes at $15. Paired with paella. I see more of this one in my future.
