Country of origin: Spain
Wine appellation: Rioja
Vintage: 2005
Alcohol content: 13.5%
Color: medium red with garnet meniscus
Bouquet: expressive, caned cherries, very gentle with vanilla and touch of smoke , after 30 minutes from the opening it opens very nicely
Taste: medium body, canned cherries, cherries marmalade, vanilla, very nicely structured and balanced, still very good acidity to keep it lasting, long finish.
Recommended food pairing: dry salami
Overall score: 87
Price: CZK 300
Stopper: cork
Very nice example of proper Rioja reserva, however I would still leave it in the cellar for 2 years to get more balanced and shaped, but overall very nice!
P.S. i will re-taste it tomorrow to ceck the development
