Rioja Reserva, Compañia Vinicola del Norte de España (CVNE) 1994

Tasting Notes

A garnet colour in the glass with a tawny rim, this wine has an expressive nose of meaty leather, sweet morello cherry and hints of damp earth. The palate is beautifully mature but there is still a core of dried red fruits which provide notes of savoury spices, layered by more earthy leather and game notes. The tannins are soft and supple, the finish smooth, rounded and elegant. The mushroom and game character lingers on the finish, making for a deliciously mature, classic Rioja. Delicious right now!
