Alvear 3 Miradas 'Paraje de Riofrio Alto', Montilla-Moriles, Spain 2018 Cote de Beaune This is a vibrant interpretation

This is a vibrant interpretation of a successful year for Toro

As expected

Lively and even a little tart as it airs out

energetic and complex on the nose with ripe red fruit character and well-integrated toasted notes

Some sea shells

Alvear 3 Miradas 'Paraje de Riofrio Alto', Montilla-Moriles, Spain 2018 Cote de Beaune This is a vibrant interpretationThe 2018 3 Miradas Paraje de Riofro Alto 3er Ao aged under flor for eight months in concrete tinajas followed by one more year in barrels that had been used for Fino CB, also under a veil of flor yeast. The wine has taken on some Fino character, nuttier with notes of dried herbs and a pungent palate. 92 Pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
