Conde de Valdemar, Rioja Reserva 2001

Deep red, some rim evolution.

Savory meat stew, oak spice, pepper, earth nose. Expressive, open knit.

Round, middle-weight entry, acid-dominant. No fat. Intensely flavored - tight-fisted red cherry, earth, iron. Long, lean finish. Cherry pit finish coats the front teeth. Foodies will love this.

$25. VGS
