Vintage 2011 | stinky smell, high bitters, flint, tight and stiff. I like the character. Need to taste more Rioja whites to be able to recognize if tasted blind.

A delicious almond, mushroom, saline complexity from one of the great white wines of Rioja.
There’s some special depth to this wine.

Hazelnuts and walnuts. Some butter. Whipped lemon curd. Beeswax and a little floral. So complex, so lovely, so enamored

first time trying aged white rioja, has been on my list. this one has 9 years of age. rich butterscotch in color, notes of caramel, butterscotch, honey, dried fruits (apricot), dried white flowers on the palate. interesting but not all that delicious by itself, but really comes alive paired with food (breaded chicken). really happy to finally try this one, interested to see what happens on day 2
