This bottle was described as a light "rioja-style" red, which spends 3 months in American Oak barrels. Like the last bottle I reviewed that spends time in American Oak this bottle had a bit of a sharp bite to it to begin with and would possibly benefit from being decanted.

There is not too much to say about this wine, it wasn't offensive but then it wasn't "special" either. Like the Dragon Tempranillo, this wine goes up against the Campo Viejo Crianza and from that respect loses out a little.
