2016 Rioja, Spain

Tasting notes

This wine has ripe plum and cherry fruit aromas with hints of spice. Richly flavoured and substantial on the palate with black fruit and a smoky, spicy character from a proportion of oak ageing. Structured tannins and a touch of liquorice on the bright finish.

Food match

Perfect with a smoky barbequed steak with patatas bravas (spicy tapas potatoes), or a chunk of Manchego cheese.
