Rioja Vega Crianza 2019 is spicy on the nose with cracked pepper, dark cherry, plum, smoky vanilla flavours savoury and smooth on the palate. An excellent value vegan-friendly Tempranillo at $16 from the RIoja wine region. Tannins are well-integrated and the finish is fresh and lingering.

Crianza food pairings: bison burgers, venison stew, stuffed venison flank.
