Damn good Rioja Crianza from awesome father & son duo Santiago Ijalba Garcìa & Roberto Ijalba Pérez. Lovely, lifted, full of ripe sweet cherries, great acid with a persistent soft spice on the finish.

Having this with a book at Flat Top, Morningside Heights. A bit disappointed as I expected a richer/fuller palate given the reviews. Good, but a bit simple. Maybe it needs time...
