The red wine Ares Crianza Rioja DOCa, vintage 2012 from the winery Bodegas Diosares has been rated in 2016 by Ulrich Sautter & Team with 88 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Tempranillo from the region Rioja Alavesa in Spain.
Lots of dark chocolate, ripe candied Amarena cherries, a hint of oxidation, malty, prunes, nicely melted on the palate, somewhat tight acidity, peppery finish, spicy, black fruit, certain elegance, a hint of heat in the aromas, but overall juicy and balanced and very typical for the ageing stage and origin.
