Vintage Cellar Wine Tasting - Vinedos Real Rubio Rioja Crianza


Name: Vinedos Real Rubio Rioja Crianza
Variety: Rioja
Region: Rioja
Country: Spain
Year: 2010
Price: $16 (Sale $9.95)

Product Description: "90 Points – Wine Enthusiast
Lightly baked berry aromas vie for attention with leather, spice and mild earth notes, and the result is disjointed. On the palate, this is tight as a drum initially, but more expansive as it unfolds. Cherry, plum, raspberry, vanilla and woodspice flavors finish pure, clean and easy. This is a fine yet manageable Rioja that’s not trying too hard. Drink through 2016."

My Review: This wine had strong herbal and earthy scents. It tasted of dark berries-specifically cherry and plum. It also had hints of wood that paired nicely with the berry flavor. It was medium bodied and easy to drink.
