Thoroughly untraditional and utterly quaffable, this Rioja is carbonically fermented, creating a juicy, light-weight, herbaceous red that pairs with temperate evenings and summer's garden-fresh flavors.

Really light and actually didn't interfere too much with the asparagus salad but did have a slight bitter finish.

v2013. Tempranillo in carbonic maceration. Lively fruit showcased in balance with acidity, tannin, and that other element that can only be characterized as fun. Drink it young, drink it with gusto, have it with food, hug your loved ones, and feel good the next morning because the flavor is not dependent upon alcoholic "power" or "bigness".

Earthy. Paired well with Latin dish. Notes of tobacco and leather.
