2003 Vina Bosconia Tinto Reserva, Rioja
From Bodegas Lopez de Heredia. Odd nose, muted and fungal, but in a pleasant way. Smelling like freshly-picked field mushrooms. Mature and attractive palate with dry and pleasant tannins. Develops a nice palate presence, more fruity and less minerality than the crianza until the end of the palate. 84/100. Drunk 06-May-14
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
