The wintertime combination of this lovely, medium bodied Rioja and homemade beef stew worked out perfectly. The wine was framed by cake like American oak and had an excellent savory dark fruit character. The finish was bright and the bottle too small!

A nice midweek sipper. Fuller side of medium bodied with a solid presence of American Oak.

A wee bit funky on the nose to start, but as it opened up, this was a real winner. Great value. I can’t seem to put the glass down. Is it this wine or is it me? 2010 on December 27, 2018
