Berberana - Carta de Oro - Crianza 2004

A wine from the Rioja wine region in Northern Spain. Crianza means that the wine has ripened for two years - for this one American oak barrels were used. The taste from the barrels is not too strong, which I like. It makes the wine nicely balanced with a little bitterness and slightly sweet fruit flavors.
