If the 16 buy!
- 2016 La Rioja Alta Rioja Viña Alberdi Reserva – Spain, La Rioja, La Rioja Alta, Rioja (9/29/2022)
Day 1: Dill, wood, sour cherry, mulberries, spice and floral notes. Complex wine for the money. Outstanding value. 92 points
Day 2: Works again on day 2. Dill is gone which a little dill is not a bad thing on Rioja. Wood, spice, floral, damp earth, dried floral notes and dust. Complex wine and this has always over delivered for me. One of the great under $20 wines on the market. 93 points
Day 3: More reserved than day 2 but offers wood, spices, earth, minerals and dried leaves. Dill is nonexistent. 90 points
Recommendation: Decant 3 hours and enjoy or try on day 2 and really enjoy. (93 points)
