This Rioja blend of 90% Tempranillo and 10% Graciano shows
off a light garnet hue with moderate red berry notes that are still intact
after nearly 16 years. On the palate, it offers a lively mouthfeel, medium
acidity, and a long, lingering finish, with subtle leather and earthy
undertones adding depth and structure. This wine is still drinking really well for
its age and could easily cellar for a few more years. For the best experience
of this mighty red beast, decant for about 90 minutes before serving. ¡Salud!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
