One of the better Riojas on the market, but a bit pricey if you consider the Lat 42 Rioja for 79kr. I did however still love this wine, just because it is a complete wine with a wonderful bouquet and full flavours in the mouth.

I thought this was a great wine. Pinot like. Great taste. Beautiful beside pan seared salmon.
I would opt to say a lot of soft wines go great with pan seared salmon. Probably just because the salmon is always so soft, with soft flavours. Thanks for the tip.
