95 ST "Deeper orange-red. Knockout perfumed nose of great purity and complexity: strawberry, milk chocolate, loam and an intriguing muskiness. Great clarity and grip in the mouth thanks to brilliantly harmonious acids. Has buns of steel but also a wonderful penetrating sweetness. Tannins are suave and resolved. An extremely elegant, very intensely flavored Rioja with superb persistence on the palate."

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.
