Reserva Rioja Alta Tempranillo Blend

Solid

Nothing too exciting. Typical Rioja. Freshness of fruit lost under too much oak.

Dry and oaky up front. On the back you eventually get some of the fruit.

Heavy on the dill.

Oak influence rules this wine with black fruit secondary. Let is sit and cherry is present but tannic spice persists, along with the presence of French and American oak.
