Slightly better than the 1990 Codice, the 1989 Crianza is a richer, fuller wine, exhibiting an abundant use of toasty oak, as well as gobs of sweet, expansive, chewy fruit. This voluptuously-styled Rioja should drink well for 4-6 years. This wine from the Bodegas Sierra Catabria is an outstanding value! A Jorge Ordonez Selection, imported by M. R. R.
