2006 Vina Cubillo Tinto Crianza, Rioja
From Bodegas Lopez de Heredia. Little on the nose, slightly herbaceous. Restrained palate, mildly fruity. Lightweight and soft but undemanding and pleasant enough with a real minerality to the flavours that dominates the gentle finish. 83/100. 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!
