Note di degustazione
The dense ruby/purple-colored 2001 Rivola is a 10,000-case cuvee of 60% Tempranillo and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 10 months in French and American oak, and bottled unfiltered. This amazingly concentrated wine could easily pass for a classified growth Bordeaux from a top vintage. It is deep and rich, with copious quantities of black currants, licorice, new saddle leather, earth, spice box, and hints of smoke. This medium to full-bodied, muscular red should drink well for 8-10 years. It is amazing stuff for the price! Importer: Jorge Ordonez, Fine Estates From Spain, Dedham, MA; tel. (781) 461-5767

(60% tempranillo and 40% cabernet sauvignon, grown on limestone-rich soil) Bright red-ruby. Slightly reduced aromas of cherry, licorice and smoke. Leanish and tightly wound, with a strong mineral backbone currently dominating. Very chalky, bright wine but a tad dry on the finish.
