Bodegas Montecillo Crianza Rioja, Rioja Spain
$25.00
Fantastic value from Rioja!
Bright garnet red, with a noticeable purple rim. Nose with a very clear presence of ripe red fruit and stone fruits, such as cherry. After light aeration, traces of fruit jam appear, followed by sweet notes of coconut and patisserie. Silky on the palate, with sublime tannins from start to finish, and a richness of texture from the high glycerol content.
Long and persistent, with clean and enjoyable fruit notes appearing again, followed by palate enveloping tannins.
Blend: 85% Tempranillo, 15% Garnacha
