Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Pale lemon with aromas of stone fruits and oaky notes. On the palate flavors of apple, lemon zest and pear with a bit of vanilla and oak. Medium finish ending with fruit and gentle smoky spice. Tasting Sample. Tasted about 9 months ago, still great.

Rich and buttery. Not exactly my style today, though I bet a few more years would bring it closer to the old white riojas I’ve enjoyed in the past
