description: Round, pretty and ripe; a dead knock-off for modern-style Rioja. There are sun-baked aromas but not the cooked type, with a palate that pushes dark berry flavors and chocolate. A rich, almost medicinal wine, the type that can often cost $50. And here it's $9. Weighs in at 14.6%, so it should have its fans.
variety: Tempranillo
