Gaudium Gran Vino Rioja Tempranillo Blend

Delicious! Brought two bottles back from Spain in May 2014. New french oak, smooth tannins and bright fruit

fortunately the wine was nowhere near as massively proportioned as the bottle! modern Rioja with a tip of the hat to classic elegance.

Roasted red peppers, dark fruits, old wood, licorice, spices. Very acidic but refreshing, balsamic botes, medium finish.

Wow, hanging in there surprisingly well! #rioja

2005 vintage. I love the nose on this wine. I want to bottle it, and smell it on demand.

Hit me with your be-ry-st shot! Here I am eating at a Michelin star restaurant and they come and drop this flavour bomb on my palate. Bravo. Bravo. Spain mi gusta!

Didn’t guess Rioja doing blind tasting. It’s an interesting interpretation, but enjoyable

17.5/20 (93/100) Насыщенный аромат с нотами черничного варенья, чернослива, чёрного перца и ментола. Тельное с довольно высокой кислотностью и интенсивными, обволакивающими, мякгкими танинами. Потрясающая концентрация во вкусе. Можно пить уже сейчас, за последние три танины округлилось, но лучше подождать ещё лет пять.
