Popped and poured; consumed over three days. Initially this came across quite polished and pretty straight down the middle for Rioja. On the third day, this became rather fascinating with dark cherries, cumin, leather and spices. On the palate, this was rich and juicy with Asian spices and a super savory finish. This is a newer project from the talent behind Remelluri and if this bottle is representative, count me as a believer! Bottle No. 09253

The Premier Cru designation of the Companio Elciego village. Aged 13-14 months half in some new oak barrique and some seasoned, the other other half in foudre. Tobacco, raspberry and blackberry, powerful fresh and elegant, this shows more exhuberant and fresh with racy acidity. Minerality and depth combine for a mid-term drinking Reserva styled Rioja. Grenache 8% Tempranillo 92%.

A nice go-to bottle of Rioja. Brings me back to our days in Haro last month. Undertones of wood and earth. Clove. Touch of menthol or maybe it's just a little dirty...
