Everything about wines and spirits from all over the world

Faustino I Gran Reserva 1996



What's great is you can get this in any good supermarket!
Grape varieties: 90% tempranillo, 10% mazuello and graciano.
It has an intense, bright ruby colour.
On the nose delicate, aromatic, deep, and complex.
Smooth, velvety, mellow taste, very long finish.

Not the best rioja wine I've had, but reminds me why my favorite variety is still tempranillo: you can find the whole european history in this bottle.

For $ 39.
