Marqués de Vargas 2005 Reserva Privada (Rioja)

Country: Spain / Northern Spain
Variety: Tempranillo Blend
Winery: Marqués de Vargas / Reserva Privada

Dry, minty and saucy on the nose, with an old-school sheer palate full of acidity, citrus, cherry tomato, herbs and snap. Shows toasty oak, length and cheeky tannins along with red fruit finishing notes. In between new wave and traditional Rioja. Drink now through 2012.
