TASTING NOTES

world

Phinca Abejera 2011 Tinto

Bodegas Bhilar, Rioja

This wine comes from a vineyard planted in 1932 and is 40% Graciano, which expresses itself through distinctly balsamic and pharmaceutical aromas (lavender, rosemary), which can both brighten up the wine as well as end up being excessive. They appear again on the palate, where there is also a good concentration of fruit and lots of freshness. A truly different Rioja. 90 points
