92 VM “Medium red. Seductively perfumed bouquet displays red and dark berries, incense and smoky Indian spices. Supple raspberry and cherry preserve flavors coat the palate and are enlivened by cinnamon, coriander seed and suave oak spices. A generous, seamless wine that manages to be deep and elegant at once, finishing sweet, sappy and long.”

Spain has the largest area under vine of any country and a deep tradition of oak-aged reds. Tempranillo-based wines from Rioja and Ribera del Duero, alongside Priorat's Garnacha and Carinena, anchor its fine-wine reputation.
Spain's noble red grape, producing structured, savory wines of red fruit and leather that respond beautifully to oak aging in Rioja and Ribera del Duero.
