Smooth, simple, easy drinking Rioja. If there weren't so much of it available perhaps I'd be more excited.

Peppery! Good with tomato sauce. Would rebuy, good value at $11.

Some nice fizz on opening. Very straightforward Rioja. Graphite and light tannins. Would go perfect with some paella. Yum

Ok. Nothing too special but enjoyable. Paired with spicy beef tacos.

Horrible fizz on the beginning. Lovely finish. This Rioja went down with a BBQ beer can chicken and roasted peppers. Good meal though.

I guess something was wrong with this bottle, or it was not my style. It had a fair amount of fizz throughout. Fruit juice. Currants. I hoped it would taste more like a classic Rioja Alta. mainly the fizz was off putting.
