A rare opportunity to buy a wine of this age from such a great vintage This fine, mature Rioja provides a powerful and enticing aroma of dried fruit, toasty oak, forest floor and tobacco. Vanilla nuances lead to a full and generous palate. The tannins are fine and silky providing elegance and structure. This is a classic vintage Rioja drinking perfectly now.
