Rivola From Sardon De Duerdo

This is a robust, full-bodied red from Spain. It fills the mouth with red fruit and has a lasting finish. It goes well with red meats. I had it with some baked ziti, and it went very well with the heavy cheese and red sauce. This is definitely a food wine. There are some tannins, so I suggest letting it open up for a while. The second glass will be better than the first. For those of you who love Spanish wine, you'll love this. This wine will soften with time, so there's no need to be in a rush. You may want to put it in the cellar for a bit. It's a great value at under $15.
