Tasting profile
Structure: medium-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
Rioja bottled outside the Crianza–Reserva–Gran Reserva ladder, which is what a name like this usually signals — the producer keeping their hands free rather than committing to a tier's minimum ageing. Tempranillo, with light oak influence and a style built for immediacy rather than for keeping. Red cherry and dried plum with vanilla, cedar and a light leathery note. Medium-bodied with soft, rounded tannin and a smooth finish. Approachable and undemanding — this is the everyday end of Rioja, comfortable on its own but better with the hearty food of northern Spain. Best in its first several years while the red fruit is still forward; there is no reward for cellaring at this level. Roast lamb, grilled chorizo, slow-cooked beef, aged Manchego.
