Tasting Notes
Slightly brick-red rim. Youthful grape sugar aromas, peppermint, some leather, red pepper, also has some wood patina and Rioja savouriness. Rich in extract on the palate, seriously built, good ripe tannin, which increases grippingly towards the finish, dry but not drying. Inconspicuous ripe acidity.
