Dry,medium-full bodied, still fairly firm, bright, ripe, Damson plum and mulberry fruit flavours with some lingering, mouthfilling, American oak notes on the nicely structured finish. Aged for 14 months in five-year-old American oak barrels, it has 13.5% alcohol and under 3 g/L residual sugar. with lot number L-3003 on the back label. A REPEAT of the 2010 that was released on May 1, 2021 at $32.95. |

| TASTING NOTE: The 2010 vintage is considered an outstanding one for Rioja, with consistent weather patterns and optimal ripening. The older these wines get, the more you can appreciate the quality of this vintage. This example shows lovely flavours of dried fig, chili powder, tobacco, aged leather, cigar and coffee. This well-aged beauty will pair wonderfully with roast pig or black-bean chili. |
