The 2023 Red Rioja Alta Finca Cienvacas is all about pure, unpretentious enjoyment. This high-altitude Tempranillo, crafted without oak, opens with warm notes of candied fruit and macerated grapes. Its smooth, rich texture, with hints of violet and dark fruits and smooth tannins, stays delightfully juicy. A fruit-forward Rioja, perfect alongside a ribeye or hanger steak with shallots. Rated 90/100 by the Selection Committee. |
