Noteringar:
2007-07-26 01:24 WA: Produced by Vega Sicilia’s owners, Alion’s 2000 Ribera del Duero is a beautifully rich offering that was aged 13 months in French oak prior to bottling. A gorgeous perfume of espresso roast, smoked herbs, roasted meat, and black currant liqueur is followed by rich, full-bodied flavors, a velvety texture, and a long, luscious finish. Consume it now and over the next 10-12 years. Importer: a Christopher Cannan Selection, various American importers including Michael Skurnik, Syosset, NY; tel. (516) 677-9300 and Diamond Wine Merchants, Oakland, CA; tel.
2007-07-26 01:24 IWC: By Stephen Tanzer Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 04 ($68) Bright medium ruby. Knockout nose combines cherry, black raspberry, baconfat, woodsmoke, leather, underbrush and pipe tobacco. Lush, pliant and sweet, with layered flavors of strawberry, coffee, leather, minerals and charred oak. Distinctly wild but with terrific fruit. Finishes with dusty tannins and excellent length. Shows the Burgundian side of tempranillo in Ribera del Duero.
