Bodegas Zugober (Belezos) Rioja Reserva

Won bronze at Challenge International in Bordeaux last year, which I attended as a judge this year. A gift bottle for judges :-). The nose exudes vanilla and coco spice, oak is a bit dominant, but then the attack is supple with ripe red fruit throughout, overlaid by vanilla. Finish is even and medium minus so overall - and taking price into consideration - this is just good enough.
