Natalie's Score: 91/100

Olarra Cerro Añon Gran Reserva 2015 is a savoury, full-bodied red wine blend of mostly Tempranillo with 20% in Graciano and Mazuelo. A comfy red with dark cherry, hazelnut, dark berry compote, cedar brush spice, dried wild herbs and mocha flavours finishing long on the palate. Tannins are structured and grippy. Pour with a roast Porchetta.

Food pairings: prime rib steak, pork tenderloin Wellington, tourtière.

Lynn van der Linde - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

A luxurious wine from start to finish.
Lush aromas of blackberries, cedar, black pepper and liquorice swirl together, carrying through to bursting fruit on the palate.
Beautifully balanced, and a wonderful expression of this Rioja region gem.
Pair with meat sauce pasta.
Tasted December 2022.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
