Ontañón 2010 Reserva is a medium-plus bodied red wine blend of 95% Tempranillo and 5% Graciano. Terrific value on this Rioja red with great balance and length. Black raspberry liqueur, ripe red plums, tobacco leaf and earthy, smoky finish. Pair with a grilled skirt steak and salsa picante.

Food pairings: grilled baseball steak, hamburger, hard cheese, barbecued pork spareribs.

Ontañón 2010 Reserva is a medium-plus bodied Rioja red wine blend of 95% Tempranillo and 5% Graciano. Leathery notes with a touch of vanilla on the nose, on the palate it is toasty and spicy with tobacco leaf, ripe plum, red cherry, mocha and earthy flavours. Pair with grilled game sausages. - Community Wine Reviews

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.

The Financial Times of London

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.
