Lealtanza Especial Reserva Rioja - 2010 (750ml) Malmsey those that like a little

those that like a little more body and density in their red blends will find much to like here

which is probably why I was not dishing out an even higher score to this still

This classic Lafite is not as fat and concentrated as the 1982 Latour

allowing the vines to capture the morning sun yet moderating afternoon temperatures

Lealtanza Especial Reserva Rioja - 2010 (750ml) Malmsey those that like a little(all tempranillo; aged in French oak for 30 months): Inky ruby. Cassis, blackberry, licorice and dark chocolate aromas are complicated by notes of vanilla, cracked pepper and woodsmoke. Juicy, penetrating and quite primary, offering sweet dark berry, mocha and black pepper flavors sharpened by peppery spices and smoky minerals. Shows very good concentration with no excess weight and finishes sweet, gently tannic and long, leaving a sexy berry compote
