Note di degustazione
Deep red. A highly perfumed, seductive bouquet evokes ripe raspberry, cherry and pipe tobacco, while woodsmoke, incense, cedary oak and baking spice accents build in the glass. Silky, pliant and alluringly sweet, offering palate-caressing red fruit, floral pastille and mocha flavors complemented by well-integrated oak spice notes. The red fruit and floral qualities repeat on a strikingly long, seamless finish framed by gentle, even tannins. This suave wine can be drunk with great pleasure now, especially with a little decanter time, but plenty of experience tells me that it will be more complex, perhaps much more so, in another 10 years and probably beyond.

A worthy follow up to the 2004 is the 2005 Viña Bosconia Reserva, a wine that they consider the most rustic and powerful in the winery, but that I find as elegant and subtle as it gets. This feels very much in line with the 2004, maybe a notch above even, a lower yielding year. The nose is somehow closed and feels young with the elegant rusticity lurking from the bottom of the glass, clean and precise. The tannins are velvety and there is great acidity--a constant here. The wine is terribly elegant. I simply loved this wine. 99,000 bottles were filled in June 2011.
