點擊次數：4059

The 2008 Vico made from 100% Mencia with 30% whole clusters and aged for 9 months in seasoned French oak. Opaque purple-colored, it offers up a slightly reticent bouquet of damp earth, mineral, incense, black cherry, and black raspberry. Dense and loaded on the palate, the flavors are already complex and mouth-filling. Impeccably balanced and with a 45-second finish, it has the stuffing to blossom for another 10 years. Drink it from now-2020. It is a great value. These wines have no track record of longevity but the balance and fruit quality suggest to me that my aging estimates are probably conservative. Of course, time will tell. Importer: Ole Imports, New Rochelle, NY; www.ole imports.com

Black cherry and blackberry flavors are ripe and juicy in this plush red, but bright acidity and light, firm tannins keep this focused. A modern style, balanced and lively. Drink now through 2015. 500 cases made, 325 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Bierzo Select to Add
