Altos de Rioja – Xai Alt 690M – 2018
Rioja Alavesa
Spain,
Rioja,
Inky dark purple core and hue. Pure and stony nose with ripe dark cherry, cassis, sage, mint and tobacco with mild oak in the background. Dense and fresh palate with layers of vibrant dark fruit, a nice herbaceous spiciness, good grip and finely tuned tannin, and a long and digest finish.
