Vintage Cellar Review: Ripe cherry and blackcurrant on the nose and in the mouth. Pliant and seamless in texture, with good heft and back-end energy. Finishes smooth and sweet, with fine-grained tannins providing shape and grip. Still on the young side but this wine drinks very well with an hour or so of decanting; it’s an excellent value for Rioja.
My Review: This is the best selling wine at the vintage cellar in the last three years. This wine has a very strong black cherry smell. The taste reminds me of a sweet tart because it is sour and sweet at the same time. The wine was delicious. I feel like it would taste good with spaghetti. I was not eating any food while at the wine tasting.
