Light and fragrant, this Rioja carries its clean flavors on a luscious texture. There are meaty notes of fennel sausage to the brisk, earthy tannins, the wine refreshed by red-berry flavors that last. It’s lean and complete Rioja for tapas, whether grilled vegetables, setas or white beans with chorizo.
