Vivanco Crianza Selección de Familia 2009

Rioja, SpainRioja is on the upswing as growers embrace tempranillo for its softer more temperate side. Red plums red licorice and tomato paste preview soft, silky textures from front to back with just a hint of spice. The wine spends 16 months in wood (French and American) before a final six months in the bottle. Ready to drink. Rabbit quail and lamb all work here.Tasted: 16 July 2015Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
