    2012 Bodegas Urbina Rioja Crianza (Rioja, SP) 4R

    Nice intensity. Marked by tertiary aging notes, particularly recalling American oak. Coconuts, vanilla, and spices reminiscent of white pepper take center stage. The fruit emerges elegantly, notably as ripe cherry, accompanied by dairy nuances. Complexity and balance are achieved with hints of musk, incense, underbrush, thyme, dill, and orange peel.
