Baron De Ley Rioja Reserva 2019 75cl - RV Drinks

A Mediterranean character Rioja at its highest expression, this Reserva combines twenty months in American oak barrels with further bottle ageing to achieve a genuinely complex, balanced profile, following the same acclaimed style as the brand's more recent vintages. Complex aromas of red fruits and sweet spices open the nose against a subtle balsamic background, developing into a palate where a powerful attack gives way to soft, supple volume that gradually extends into a creamy finish, closing with the aftertaste reminiscent of red-berry fruit mingled with hints of wild herbs that define the Baron de Ley house style.
