We were celebrating my Son's 21st birthday this weekend so I cracked open a magnum of old Rioja (2009) that I've been wanting to try for years. This particular wine was a gift from the family of a Spanish friend of my Son, we got it when we visited them in Madrid back in 2012 so I thought it appropriate that we celebrate his coming of age with it. It was delicious, red fruits, plum, liquorice, tobacco with a lingering sweet finish a lovely wine at the perfect drinking age and a big bottle to boot! Luckily there were four of us to polish it off, which we dutifully did! Happy birthday Son!
