Ontañon Crianza 2003 - DOC, Rioja, Spain (#976910) - $14.95
Tasting Note:
Smoky blackberry, plum and black licorice aromas which follow through on the palate. Also notes of crushed red berries and leather. Spicy finish. Light- to medium-bodied and ripe. Definitely ready to drink now.
I'm not much a North American football fan, but I am enjoying this one on Super Bowl Sunday with some vegetable spring rolls, shrimp spring roll and jerk-style wings. Yummy.
Purchased this one back in 2007 and let it age in the basement. (It's not available at the LCBO anymore.)
