This dark red aged Rioja has aromas of spicy plum and liquorice with some burnt toast too. The flavour is light and juicy with balckberry fruitiness and some pencil wood creaminess for balance. It would be nice if this had a slightly more fruity flavour but when a wine gets a few years old these types of characteristics start to fade.
