LOPEZ DE HEREDIA BOSCONIA GRAN RESERVA 1981

Stock#: 3334P MSRP: $124.99  Your Price: $99.91 "The ’81 Bosconia Gran Reserva is a suitably beautiful bottle that fully captures all the promise of this great vintage in Rioja. This is another wine that I have had at a couple of tastings in the last few months, and it seems to get better and better as it gains in bottle age. The is a lovely mélange of cherries, orange rind, woodsmoke, cloves and cinnamon, orange zest, coffee and a great base of soil. On the palate the wine is medium-full, long and vibrant, with impeccable balance, excellent focus and lovely length and grip on the softly tannic, tangy and very complex finish. I love the combination of intensity of flavor and the bouncy palate impression of the ’81 Bosconia Gran Reserva, which texturally bears more than a passing resemblance to Chambolle-Musigny. A lovely wine. 2008- 2025." 94+ points John Gilman Click Here to view all Products in our RARITIES Category
