This is one tantalizing Reserva from Rioja. It is filled with aromas of baked earth, sun-warmed strawberry, prune, mocha, smoke and rosemary. This red wine is dry and quite intense with layers of flavors at the core. There's still a lot of life in this tasty and maturing red. Enjoy it over the next 5-7 years.
