Castillo Perelala, Tinto Crianza 2002.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to appraise this wine, we made independent tasting notes and then compared.
Strong oak on the nose, with a hint of tobacco, the oak overpowering the fruit but together making a pleasant bouquet.
Good tannins but tended to some harshness at the finish (may well mellow somewhat with a little more age).
Accompanied Boeuf Bourginon very well although the oak did still predominate. The wine's flavour was enhanced with mature Cheddar cheese and with a mixed grill with lamb the sweetness of the meat tended to enhance the acidity.
