1964 Bodegas Franco Espanolas Royal Reserva, Rioja
Posted: 15:36 Sat 31 May 2014
Pale orange, perhaps 10% opaque. Exquisite nose, full of sweet fruit and exotic spices. Balanced palate, with acidity keeping the fragrant fruit focused and alive. Immense finish, long and flavoursome. A fantastic wine which shows no sign yet of starting to decay. 95/100. Drunk 18-May-14. 1 hour decant.
