Tasting 2 October 2008
Conde de Salceda Reserva 1998 D.O. Rioja
Tasted to see whether still in good enough condition to sell.
Beautiful, brick colour with a wonderful bouquet of leather, spice and red fruit.
Rich and ripe, perhaps too ripe, on the palate with a lingering full-bodied finish. Finally lacking great acidity for a refreshing finish, but still intact and almost a modern style while showing those traditional woody, spicy Rioja characteristics at the same time.
More than acceptable
