CVNE 1999 Imperial Gran Reserva (Rioja)

Country: Spain / Imperial Gran Reserva
Variety: Tempranillo Northern Spain
Winery: CVNE / Rioja

Textbook Rioja gran reserva in every way. It’s light and smoky smelling, with brown sugar, fine cologne and cedary aromas. Generous but well-cut in the mouth, with fig, mushroom, raspberry and spiced plum flavors. Fresh on the finish, with light herb flavors and good weight. Drink now through 2018.
