Lots of cherries, nice tannin, a little minty on the nose for me. Nothing to complain about but nothing exciting either!

Medium ruby red. Dark cherries on the nose and a bit of spices. Medium tannins (5.5/10) and medium bodied. Tons of red cherries on the palate. Lots of acidity too. Medium plus finish. Drink till 2020.

Lighter than most Garnachas. Bright cherry/strawberry, dusting of spice -- nice quaffer, terrific value

More acidic than I expected. Bright, semi-floral, would be great for a summer cookout.

Dark cherries, light body zippy finish. Good taco wine

This $10 Rioja blew my mind. The rating is taking the absolutely phenomenal price into consideration. While not very multifaceted, this red is the perfect evening drinking mate leaving you very happy, warm, and satisfied. Goes well with or without food.

13.5/20 (81/100) Зелёная листва, еловые почки и намёк на земляничное варенье в аромате. Резкая, неприятная кислотность и вяжущие танины. Так испортить гарначу в Риохе - нужно постараться.
