In Brief
Travellers comments :For this Spanish Rioja red wine. Clear visual with ruby colour. Aroma with a first sniff dry with red fruits and second sniff focused on cherry, oak, vanilla and some florets fruits. In the mouth dry wine with good acidity and good balance, retro-Odors of red fruits. Good persistence in the mouth with medium finish. Elegance red wine with good balance and alcohol. Cheers
