Viña Sardasol 2000 Reserva Red (Navarra)

A bit rubbery at first, but then it picks up steam and clarity. Raspberry, cherry and earth flavors are good, as is the light finish that shows touches of citrus and vanilla. Nothing special but absolutely nothing to take issue with. Imported by Visentin Wine & Spirits, LLC.

Fairly sweet and fruity, with notes of raspberry jam and cotton candy on the bouquet. Feels nice across the palate, with tangy strawberry and red-cherry flavors leading to a fresh, wet, bright finish. A good but pedestrian wine at a reasonable price.
