Country: Spain / Crianza
Variety: Tempranillo Blend Northern Spain
Winery: Burgo Viejo / Rioja
Berry and cinnamon aromas are lightly woody and spicy. This is tannic but not mean or fierce. Flavors of oaky plum and berry fruits turn savory in front of a finish with a dry, snappy, slightly raw feel. Given that 2013 was a cold vintage, this Crianza deserves praise.
