Finca del Marquesado 2013 Crianza (Rioja)

Country: Spain / Northern Spain
Variety: Tempranillo Blend
Winery: Finca del Marquesado / Crianza

Slightly gritty aromas are just barely ripe enough. This feels tight, acidic and like tomato juice. Flavors of salty berry fruits, tomato, oak and vanilla are modest but complete. Given how cool 2013 was in Rioja, this is quite good.
