Description

Brian Carter Cellars Corrida 2010 750ml

A beautiful garnet color greets you with bright aromas of black cherry, black currant, cedar, licorice, black pepper and baking spices. On the palate, the ripeness of the vintage shows through with expansive fruit balanced with pleasing old word acidity. The wine lingers nicely in the mouth finishing with the presence of fine tannins. Enjoy this wine with grilled meats or vegetables such as marinated pork loin or eggplant.

This is modeled after a Rioja crianza, showing young, mixed fruits from a blend of 62% Tempranillo, 12% Graciano, 11% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Grenache. Showing generous acidity, hints of apple, peach, cranberry and herb, it s a fresh and fruit-driven young wine, perfect for warm weather enjoyment.
