title: Telmo Rodríguez 2008 Altos Lanzaga Gran Viñedo  (Rioja)
description: From a mediocre vintage, it seems as though the winery poured on the fully toasted oak to cover up marginal fruit. This smells like burnt meat and rubber, tastes charred and baked, and finishes blackened and overly toasty, with a choppy feel and hard tannins.
variety: Tempranillo
designation: Altos Lanzaga Gran Viñedo
