Lot #561. R. López de Heredia Rioja Tinto Gran Reserva Viña Bosconia 1976

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 96 ST.
"Multidimensional nose of raspberry, black plum, orange zest, coffee, milk chocolate, game and a superripe whiff of raisin. Uncanny sweetness in the mouth, with a strong spine of acidity framing and intensifying the fruit flavors. Really remarkable acid/fruit balance. Big, rich, powerful and deep. Finishes extremely long and magically fresh." Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Nov/Dec 99
Notes: 3cm, Very lightly chipped wax capsule, very lightly scuffed label.
