Carlos Serres Rioja Gran Reserva 2014 750 ML

This dark-ruby-colored wine has a bouquet of dark plum, dried Mediterranean herbs and cigar box. A layer of dense tannins plays backup to flavors of black currant, blackberry, licorice, black truffle and cedar chest. A touch of bright fruit makes its way to the long-lasting finish. \n \n Producer Information \n Carlos Serres was a pioneer in Rioja.
