“The Marqués de Tomares Crianza screams Rioja with its saddle nose and dark cherry and licorice aromas. The Crianza over delivers with classic charm and old world depth while hugging ripe fruit and purple flowers. Enough funk and rustic charm to satisfy traditionalists with enough ripeness and body to balance the velvety texture. Always tobacco.” - From La Luz Selections
