Viña Salceda Rioja Reserva 1996
Rioja Alavesa, Rioja, SpainSlightly younger looking than the Crianza. Intense, plummy prune fruit with vanilla and leather and some smoky bacon. Slightly bigger and more intense than the crianza, yet it's drier and has more tannin at this point. Will need a few years to settle down.Tasted: 01 May 1999Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $31.95 | 750ml | Specialty |
