Berberana – Rioja – Reserva – 1970


A very aromatic bouquet of raspberries and cherries. Obviously no longer tannic, with mature but delightful fruit, a complex finish where savoury elements mingle with the now well-integrated oak, and a lingering floral aftertaste. Very Burgundian in style. Delicious and immensely satisfying, long-lived wine from one of the great Rioja vintages.

95/100
