Punchy crowpleaser: heavy, almost syrupy body with strong, bold flavors of oaky vanilla, ripe black cherry, and cinnamon spice. Smooth and round mouthfeel. Not terribly complex but a joy to drink.

Cune imperial reserve 2019.
Tasty red. Reminds me of when we were there. Complex but nice. Opened up for new years. Enjoyed a nice glass prior to falling asleep waiting for the ball to drop. Dark ruby red. Little tannins. Nose was floral. Really easy to drink. Had it second day which was great. Happy new years with a flight of tacos (9/10). 40-50$. Would absolutely recommend this wine. So smooth. So silky. Like a nye dress. It s a 10-9…

Rarely drink rioja but this was nice, especially paired with a large ribeye at a Spanish restaurant. Good fruit and dusty earth, quite round, maybe lacking a bit of acid for my taste but still nice.
