Noteringar:
2007-06-25 02:06 WS: This concentrated red delivers plum, blackberry, coffee, mineral and game flavors, framed by muscular tannins that soften on the finish, where the fruit lingers. Best after 2007. 11,000 cases made. –TM
2007-06-25 02:07 WA: Bodegas Pintia is owned by the famous estate, Vega Sicilia. The 2003 Pintia (100% Tinta de Toro aka Tempranillo) is a powerful, opaque purple effort that spent 12 months in new French oak. The expressive nose offers toast, vanilla, charcoal, and blue and black fruits which jump from the glass. There is a boatload of tannin but more than enough fruit for balance. Currently the 2003 is tight, firm, and a bit austere but a few years of bottle age should bring things into harmony.
2007-06-25 02:07 IWC: By Josh Raynolds Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 06 ($54) Dark ruby. Brooding, very ripe, lightly roasted dark berry and plum aromas tinged by espresso, bitter chocolate and wild herbs. Warm and toasty, with a strong oak spice accent to the roasted cherry and cassis flavors. With air, exotic oak spice and leather emerge, as well as solid, chunky tannins. Finishes ripe, deep and sweet, with strong berry liqueur and coffee flavors. Seriously ripe but also nicely balanced, the fruit just this side of roasted and compellingly sweet.
