the acidity a little lower than the 2010 and the tannins softer

Marques Murrieta, Rioja Dalmau Reserve other_regions the acidity a little lower(this wine was reviewed in July 2008 and is a library release, with a price to match) Deep ruby.

Finishes long and smooth, featuring slow building tannins and
