The red wines of Spain's Rioja region are known for their depth and complexity paired with approachability, making them appealing to everyone on the wine-loving spectrum, from novice to aficionado. Those from Rioja's Alavesa sub-appellation are especially compelling; Alavesa's cooler climate - thanks to its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean and its higher altitude - imparts bright, refreshing acidity.
Today's offer is medium-to-full-bodied, with aromas and flavors of brambly red cherries. The palate is silky and layered with accents of savory herbs, wet stone, and balancing acidity. The finish is long and smooth.
ABV: 13.5%
