Vega Crianza Rioja, Spain, 2017 
80% Tempranillo, 5% Mazuelo, 15% Garnacha with 12 months in American oak. 
A bright wine. Complex array of aromas on the nose, with notes of red fruits and liquorice and subtle hints of toast, spices and cinnamon. Silky, pleasant and enveloping on the palate, long, balanced, with very good tannins. 
Great with grilled red meats, veal and vegetables. 
Winemaker's Notes: Alcoholic fermentation for 10 days, following by skin contact maceration for 18 days. Fermentation was carried out at 28ºC with malolactic in stainless steel tanks. 12 months in American oak with 2 rackings followed by a minimum of 6 months in bottle until going on sale.

I have been searching for this wine since my return from Tarragon in August this year where I first experienced it. I am not an expert in wine however I know what I like when I taste it. I usually commit the cardinal sin when drinking red wine and chill it, but not this one. Beautifully full bodied and smooth. I will definitely be buying more. Give it a try.
