2016 Cuna de Reyes Rioja, Spain, Wine Review

Vintage: 
2016
Score: 
89
Grade: 
B+

This is a blend of 90% Tempranillo and 10% Garnacha from Rioja, Spain.  Garnet in color, purple at the core, mostly opaque and bright.  The nose is nice with cherries and dill.  Soft texture.  Medium tannins.  On the palate, this seems fully mature at age 10.  Flavors of ripe cherries with slight sour cherry notes also.  Long finish.  This is an inexpensive red wine that delivers well for the money.  A great choice for a midweek dinner of Meat Loaf or Rotisserie Chicken.  Drink over the next couple of years.
