Gran Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend

In a great place. Balanced to perfection. Pickle barrel and savory spices.

Truly stunning.

Lovely one. Closed and needs at least one and a half hours of your time. Will develop beautifully. Classic Aged Rioja

This was soft, silky & elegant showing notes of cherry, strawberry with spice, earth, dried leather & rose petal.

Berry fruits, leather & spice that is drinking beautifully

Blinded and smelled very much like Burgundy

Fresh & vibrant with good acidity showing lots of red cherry, strawberry, earth, tobacco, orange rind & dried rose petal with good spice, silky texture & floral elegance.

1978 Vina Real Rioja. Post doc fam dinner at house. Poured out of decanter, though we didn't let it air for too long. Still a lot of life in it at first pour and delicious- light and still some fruit, but got flat after about an hour. A real treat while we drank it though

Fuck. Ing. Dee. Licious.

Nice older Rioja!
