Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo (Carignan), Graciano
By LdH standards, this is a mere babe of a wine. Considered their "entry-level" Rioja, it already has six years under its belt and it's offering plenty of gorgeousness. Made with the indigenous grapes of Rioja - Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo (Carignan), Graciano. Licorice and dark berry fruits brim from the glass. It is juicy and aromatic all at once, with a hint of complexity.
