Faustino V Reserva Rioja 2013 Red Wine, $16.49-$44.99, 90 points, poured a deep ruby red with orange highlights toward the clear meniscus with hanging sheets on the glass bowl.
Aromas of geranium, toast, and sweet red fruits were pleasant.
Medium-bodied red wine with good acidity, fine grainy tannins, and tart tasty flavors of strawberry, red raspberry, tobacco, and cola notes, though quite dry and a bit astringent, showed great Tempranillo character.
Finished with notes of iron, pepper spices, and a well-integrated 13.5% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with burgers.
