The 2009 Azagador Crianza is the flagship brand of the estate and spends around ten months in 80% American and 20% French oak barrel. The nose is clean, with strawberry, raspberry and leather aromas. The palate is simple and straightforward with crisp acidity, moving towards a soft, slightly earthy, tart finish. It is an uncomplicated, easy-drinking Crianza that is perfectly satisfying at this price. Drink now.
