2004 | Bodegas Roda 'Roda I' Reserva | Rioja Bandol yellow fruit and grilled driedThe 2004 vintage was a great one in Rioja (as it was in the rest of Spain). The 2004 Roda I Reserva is purple colored with an expressive, youthful bouquet of wood smoke, espresso, incense, tobacco, black cherry, and blackberry. Structured on the palate, it has enough ripe tannin to evolve for another 6 8 years. Sweetly fruited, it has superior depth and concentration, layered savory flavors, and a lengthy, pure finish. 94 Pts Wine Advocate
