This wine reflects the wild

peach skins and chalk dust spout poetry

Full-bodied with a wonderful balance of fruit and fine tannins as well as mineral

the Merlot-dominated 2016 Château Valandraud is a brilliant example of this cuvée that should match or exceed the incredible 2015 at maturity

it has an aristocratic perfume of pain grille

2020 | Bodegas Ramirez de la Piscina Reserva | Rioja Cakes and Cream This wine reflects the wildMore tannic and muscular than the current Crianza, the 2020 Reserva offers thick, densely concentrated layers of dark, smoky fruit, and oak, made from lower yielding tiny berries of Tempranillo. Expansive tannins coat the palate, adding medium bodied intensity. The wine was aged 18 months in barrel and nearly the same length of time in bottle. Theres a leathery garrigue type aspect to the finish that suggests it will continue to develop well 15 20
