Bodegas Orben
Orben Rioja Tempranillo
La Rioja, Spain

Sourced from over 70 tiny parcels of old-vine, head-pruned Tempranillo blended with a small percentage of Graciano, aged 15 months in French oak. Deep Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits, sweet spice and herb notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and ripe plum with notes of vanilla, spice, tobacco and floral herbs. Fine firm tannins, long finish ending with fruit, oak and earthy character. Very nice!

The 2009 very much enjoyed with a lovely dinner of grilled mushrooms and Turbo in Seville. Nice structure, vanilla oaky flavors nicely integrated, needed to breath a bit before drinking, I imagine lots of further aging potential here.

Red fruit, strawberries and wet leaves, some dark notes, medium bodied, tense tannins and an extremely high acidity (2013 was a rainy one in Rioja). Noticeable oak. Drunk too young maybe
