Montecillo Crianza 2001
Rioja, SpainYou get a fine $30 Riojan nose here for $19. The wine is leaner on the palate than the nose would but it' sin line with a middle aged Rioja. Dried fruits and spice with just a touch of tannin suggest lamb or beef would be best at this point. If you can accept the dryness this could be a versatile mid-week dinner.Tasted: 08 April 2007Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $17.71 | 750ml | |
