2016 Baron De Ley Reserva Rioja 750ml

The Reserva feels very harmonious and subtle, not letting through the heat from the vintage and showing contained ripeness and integrated oak; it has some balsamic aromas, somehow developed and adding complexity. The palate feels compact, with fine tannins and good balance, fresh enough and with a tasty finish. Ready and willing. It's mostly Tempranillo, but it also contains 15% Graciano and 5% Maturana.
