Tight bubbles

A wide spectrum of aromas that range from blackberries and blueberries to graphite

Don’t like Gewürztraminer

a few days before I first tasted it

and subtle spice unfold gracefully

2018 | Bodegas Bhilar 'Phinca El Vedao' | Rioja Chateau Deyrem Valentin Tight bubblesI found strong aromas of spices and herbs in the Phinca El Vedao, which comes from two plots in the El Vedao paraje in the village of Elvillar where there's a lot of Garnacha. It's 14. 5% alcohol but has kept quite high acidity, close to seven grams. It's medium bodied, fine grained and tightly coiled, with a chalky sensation. 93 Pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
