2001 D.O.Ca Rioja Probiedad H. Remondo, La Rioja, Spain

Plums and red berries on the nose, herbaceous and floral notes, dark, roasted aromas. Quite prominent roasted notes in the mouth, too, but also shows ripe, juicy fruit, medium-fine tannins, fairly creamy on the palate, quite persistent, good substance and depth, slight acid bite that is quite appealing, attractive to good finish.

Best to drink: Bis 2008+. What our ratings mean
