FAMILIA VALDELANA TEMPRANILLO 2022, Rioja, Spain

The wild blackberry and raspberry notes hit you right away, and that powerful attack makes it perfect for grilled meats. The long finish kept me coming back for another sip.

The balanced acidity really makes the wild raspberry and currant notes pop, and the finish lingers beautifully. Perfect for a weeknight pasta dish.

That rich, jammy blackberry flavor hits you right away, and the acidity is so well-balanced it doesn't wear out your palate. I was really impressed by how the powerful attack settles into such a smooth, long finish. It's a fantastic everyday Rioja for the price.
