Vinas Riojanas La Chaya 2015
La Rioja, ArgentinaI’m a fan of Neil Empson selections but this one is just a little too commercial for us. An BCLDB ‘exclusive,’ that sells for $9.99. It’s shipped all the way from Argentina so you can image it would have to be dirt cheap at the origin. The recipe is soft, confected and painfully persistent. It’s named after a carnival in La Rioja, Argentina, where the locals dress up like Devils and celebrate La Pachamama (mother earth) with dancing, eating and drinking. The problem is the devil is in the details.Tasted: 07 April 2017Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $9.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
