La Rioja Alta Vina Arana Gran Reserva Rioja

Rioja

The nose is fruity with black currants, blackberries, currants and crow berries. There is also liquorice, moist moss, saffron and cardamom. The palate is medium-bodied, intensely fruity and with a fine balancing acidity. The finish is medium long, fruity and acidic. It is lean and elegant, and very nice to drink now. It is very different from the big brothers 904 and 890 which are both heavier and more dominated by oak when young. This has only been in old oak barrels, and is therefore leaner, more fruity and drink-ready much earlier. 91 Points. It paired well with the hamburger from Matmagasinet.

Førsteinntrykket: utrolig mye lukt og smak!

Farge: Dyp rød
Lukt: eksotisk, blomst, eik. Veldig spennende å lukte på - kunne sikkert vært lukt på en såpe eller lignende for denne luktet godt.
Smak: Utrolig bløt. Fyldig og myk. Dempet eikesmak. Fin syrlighet og fine tanniner. Smaken sitter lenge.

God duft av solbær og eik. Intens smak av mørke bær og eik, noe skuffende lengde og mangler noe syre for balanse. Utviklet seg negativt med luft.
