Traditional Rioja blend of Tempranillo (85%), Graciano (10%) and Mazuelo (5%). Rusty brick color. Aromas of wet tree bark, tobacco, leather and a hint of dried black cherry. Cooked plums and concentrated cherries dominate the pallet with nice notes of baking spices, black licorice and dark cocoa. Dry and earthy medium/long finish. Still has some nicely balanced acidity. Pretty lively for its age. Quite good. Thank You for the wonderful gift, John P!
