The Montecillo Riojas available in the general listings at the LCBO (Crianza and Reserva) always offer an excellent price/quality ratio. And they are often on sale, as is the case right now with the Reserva. Nicely aromatic with Tempranillo's red fruit in the lead. Oak is well integrated. Bright acidity on the palate makes this very food friendly. Medium plus body, easing tannin, and very good length. Nice quaff at a very reasonable price. Jan. 2017.
