Wine Enthusiast Top 100 Wine Values of 2002
I tried this Marques de Arienzo 1998 Crianza today with smoked and peppered rainbow trout. First nose brought a smile to my face and the first taste made me wonder how I have never managed to try Tempranillo before. At under $20 a bottle, I feel this is a great price for a very nice enjoyable red. No red lover should be concerned about being less than pleased with this one. In fact I am a little shocked that it is not at least $30-$40 a bottle.
I have also picked up a few bottles of the Marques de Arienzo 1994 Grand Reserve as well. I have yet to try it, but after this experience I am sure that I will enjoy it as well. I will most certainly be adding some more sessions with the Tempranillo wines to my hobby.
Try this with a nice hot serving of rich sausage lasagna.
