La Rioja Alta Viña Ardanza 2019

Dried cherry, warm herbs, and a subtle forest floor note, with the oak tucked neatly into the background where it belongs. Firm, fine-grained tannins give the wine its shape without adding weight, there's a plush, supple core beneath the structure. A clean chalky grip on the finish keeps everything in line. Ardanza doing exactly what Ardanza does best.
