2020 Viña del Olivo, Contino, Rioja
Viña del Olivo was revolutionary in Rioja in the early 1970s for being Rioja's first single estate, modelled on the Bordeaux concept. Under the meticulous winemaking of Jorge Navascués, this wine and the 2020 vintage is exceptional. A wonderful perfume of red cherries, rose petals and cranberries are supported by sweet and savoury spice. There are hints of lapsang souchong tea and crushed stones as well as some herbs. The tannins have a great presence, as well as an attractive suppleness.
