Tasting - Vinedos Real Rubio

Tasting:3/16/2017

Name: Vinedos Real Rubio

Variety: Temprenillo Blend

Region: Rioja, Nothern Spain

Country: Spain

Year: 2010

Winery Review:Lightly baked berry aromas vie for attention with leather, spice and mild earth notes, and the result is disjointed. On the palate, this is tight as a drum initially, but more expansive as it unfolds. Cherry, plum, raspberry, vanilla and woodspice flavors finish pure, clean and easy. This is a fine yet manageable Rioja that's not trying too hard. 90 points - (site)

My Review: Smells sweet with honeysuckle & floral aromas. It was slight dry, medium sweet while there was a taste of cherry and spices.Very good red & would probably be better with a classic Spanish dish.
