By far my favorite wine:
Cardova Rioja (from Spain)
https://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=20192#

You can find the 2009 for like $12 - $13 online. This wine is better than some $100 bottles I have had.

Had this on Purim.  While I had much else to drink before I got to this bottle, it wasn't very impressive.  No body.

IME the glass does make a difference but more important than the company (Reidel is the best Ive used) is using the correct size and shaped glass.

I have fun going to Kosher restaurants who are officially a wine place and ask them why the heck they are serving me a Merlot in a chardonnay glass. The waiters and bar tenders are just dumbfounded and clueless. Namely Basil for the record.
