Viñedos de Aldeanueva
Azabache Seleccionada Garnacha
La Rioja, Spain
Expected more from 2019 vintage in 2025. Strong dry plums, cinnamon, lime in nose. Cranberries, plums at palate. Acidity is high, tanins are moderate to high. Imagine rioha, and after rioha riserva. That's it. No character. Not impressed.

Smooth with big red fruit and medium to high tannins. Great value too.

Finish is a little tart for my tastes. Getting tons of stone fruit/plum peel on the finish with vanilla and tobacco notes underneath.
