Outstanding Crianza Rioja, direct and full of black fruit with a twist of blood orange and just enough oak influence to add spice without gripping tannins. Pure, full of drive, and remarkably tall on the palate, this will rock your world served with lamb. The Cuevals family created Queiron to showcase the character of their home in Rioja Oriental, and “My Place” does that in style. 90% Tempranillo, 10% Garnacha, all from tiny plots at 600 meters and higher aged 18 months in French and American oak (most, if not all, used).
For You If: You like your Rioja to showcase the region’s tradition, the ripe fruit of an outstanding vintage, and Tempranillo’s savory complexity; you’re after something to serve with grilled lamb – not sure there’s a better choice!
Not For You If: You’re looking for something with Napa Cab-like lushness – this has plenty of body but is more lean and focused; you are after the faded glory of super “old-school” Rioja – this nods to that tradition but keeps a more youthful balance.
