    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    The impressive 2018 offers cool tensile blackcurrant, blackberry and black cherry, overlaid by brambles and orange rind. Cracked fennel seed, tomato skin, grilled meat jus and French onion soup flavours power through the mid palate. Graphite, iron filings and white pepper endure on the lifted violet floral finish. The overwhelming impression is of precision, tension, depth and a lovely, understated oak charm. Despite its relatively modest price tag, this imperious Rioja will bring unmitigated pleasure to those that taste it, even now, but it will evolve beautifully over decades, if given the chance. A better accompaniment to roast lamb has yet to be discovered.
