CRIANZA 2019 DOCa Rioja |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
FINCA MONICA |
Fairly deep intense purple colour. Attractive, intense, floral-tinged, warm, expansive, ripe, Damson plum nose with some woodsy, cedary-sandalwood notes. Dry, medium bodied, very nicely textured, fairly complex and yet elegant, gently savoury, rose hip and nasturtium notes on the lingering, lifted, harmonious finish. This delicious, ready-to-drink, 100% Tempranillo has 13.5% alcohol and under 3 g/L residual sugar with lot number L733131 on the back label. It is showing beautifully now and is the best value wine I tasted in this May 10 Vintages release. |

TASTING NOTE: Deep cherry-red with ruby tints. Delicate vanilla oak with beautiful fresh fruit presence of blackcurrant and wild strawberry. Supple, softly textured palate showing medium concentration. Oak influence resonates with the fruit. Good youthfulness and freshness. Score - Gold (gilbertgaillard.com, 2020) |
