Milenrama 2013 Crianza (Rioja)

Country: Spain / Crianza
Variety: Tempranillo Northern Spain
Winery: Milenrama / Rioja

Reflecting a cool, rainy vintage, this smells gritty, without a lot of ripeness. The fact that it’s racy and drawing on the palate follows suit. Flavors of cherry and plum are subdued, while the finish is spicy in flavor and dry and prickly in feel.
