1999 La Rioja Alta Rioja Viña Ardanza Reserva

[brappy]

Eng, this is a great wine. When you say thin, I almost want to equate this to mature. Sweet as in tannins being resolved into sweet fruit. This is still one of the old styles of the Rioja that is beautifully made but retains a QP price. Right now, I'm drinking through some of the '00s. Also very good although it's not quite as good as the '99.

I guess this is me rambling......

Would love to be drinking this right now. Instead I'm putting down some Sherry. Another story all together....
