Tasting - R&G Rioja 2011

Name: R&G Rioja 2011
Variety: Tempranillo
Region: Rioja
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $14

Critic Review: The 2011 vintage of the Rioja reveals red and black fruit. It’s exceptionally pure and clean, with prominent red fruit on the palate, along with firm tannins and  persistent finish.

My Review: This wine had a pretty dense nose. The taste of the wine was bitter to me and drier than the other wines. As with most wines, I didn't enjoy this one since I enjoy the fruitier ones.

I did not have this wine with food.
