Amancio, Rioja, 2005
A densely-planted, low-yielding single vineyard in “La Veguilla” area, in San Vicente de la Sonsierra, La Rioja Alta. A staggering 8-10% of the vineyard's production was used for this blend. Aged in new french oak for 24 months, but the oak is beautifully integrated, this is a serious, towering Rioja, beautifully composed, fine-tuned pure packed with bramble, cherry, kirsch flavours with redcurrant and mineral touches, the tannins are suave and supple yet provide great backbone and stuffing.
critic reviews
(200% new French oak; bottled after 24 months in barrel) Opaque purple. Compelling aromas of candied red and dark berries are complicated by cola, vanilla, floral oil and incense. Sappy raspberry and blackcurrant flavors are given lift and clarity by tangy minerality. Sexy floral pastille and Asian spice qualities gain power with air and carry into the finish. Leaves spicy berry notes behind on the endlessly sweet, captivating finish. This will drink well early, as in now.
