Description

A beautifully presented imperial of Rioja from the excellent 2004 vintage. I have not been able with my photographic skills to do justice to the Gasket which is wonderful and a proper setting for such fabulous wine. It is described as thus :-

Wine Advocate 97:
The 2004 Amancio is a step above the 2005. It offers a nose which is already sexy and complex with expressive spice, wild flowers, and dark fruit aromas. Plush, bordering on voluptuous on the palate, it will continue to blossom for another 3-4 years and drink well through 2029 and beyond in this large format.
