2015 Ultimate Wine Challenge

Federico Paternina Reserva 2009 Rioja (Spain), 13% abv, $20.99

92
Excellent,
Highly Recommended

Tasting Note:

Intriguing nose of Iberico ham, cocoa, menthol, red currant, dried thyme, and charred earth. On the palate it maintains fresh berry fruits balanced by wood-roasted herbs, olive, and minerals. The finish is complex, yet smooth, with resolved tannins.
