Beautiful. This old wine is a treat, with a musty and gamey nose of balsamic fruit, lilac, tamari and earth. Old school rioja.

Mmm. ‘98 showing up in a big way. Finesse and power wrapped together in a beautiful package. Spiced red fruit clad in vanilla bean, lengthy acidity, and subtle earth. Everything in its place. Get at this.
