2/18/2023 - JRockEsq Likes this wine: 87 points

Method: glass at Augustine Wine Bar

Nose: meat/brisket, anise, black licorice, light cooked shiitake mushroom; great nose

Plate: cherry, light black pepper, light anise; medium finish; dry; good concentration, especially for its age; light+ body; medium- very fine tannin; medium- acidity

Overall thoughts: The palate's nothing special if you ignore the age of the wine (but impressive for it's age), but the nose is great and really carried this wine. Such a treat to try this. Good wine.

I reckon the previous comments were way too dismissive. This is perfectly good Rioja reserva, and it is still showing no sign of falling over. Of course it is not a blockbuster - it was never intended to be. Price for price it is far better value than many other areas, as Rioja has always been.

Even I could recognise this as Rioja in a blind tasting, very traditional, fleshy fruit with a good dollop of oaky vanilla. Should last for a few years yet.

Although still young this is drinking now. Good with lots of typical Rioja features, red fruit and oaky vanilla but not quite premier league.

Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels. Garnet of medium intensity. The nose is quite expressive, with notes of tar, red fruit, smooth toasted touches, spicy nuances and a background of licorice. In the mouth has good attack, with intense but quite polished tannins, good acidity, with good bitter notes and a remarkable length. With some classic style.

Criado durante 18 meses en barricas de roble francés. Color granate de media capa. La nariz es bastante expresiva, con notas de brea, fruta roja, suaves tostados, matices especiados y un fondo de regaliz. En boca tiene buen ataque, con un tanino vivo pero bastante pulido, bien de acidez, con buenos amargos y notable longitud. Presenta cierto aire clásico.

blind tasting, nobody was guessing origine and age, in the nose a little bit oxidative, in the palate raisins, reminds me to an Amarone, good acidity, very balanced and long finish

On the nose with juniper, dark berries and a bit of creamy oak, yet very understated. On the palate balsamic sweet red fruit, very rounded and pleasant, mid-long finish and an excellent wine to accompany pasta. Enjoyed it, not the most complex and intellectual wine, but very quaffable.

De color rubí granatoso de capa media-alta, extraído, oscuro. Reflejos rojizos y cobrizos, sin mucho brillo. Tiene un fino precipitado en la base de la botella. Borde amplio, completamente atejado y gran diferencia respecto al menisco.

Despierto, expresivo, potente. Se despliega con mucha fuerza y una marcada expresión tostada que recuerda a los antiguos vinos de Félix Azpilicueta (ceniza, café quemado, pimientas molidas) junto a un fondo finamente avainillado. Un vino directo, envolvente, que rehuye de lo sutil para ir al grano. Mucha fruta roja licorosa, reducida, junto a notas de clavo, hierbas aromáticas, oréganos. Se asemeja en entereza al Marqués del Romeral de 1962 aunque menos clásico y con un exceso de holgura muy difícil de embutir. Buen ejemplo del principal "defecto" de los Rioja del 64.

Boca amplio, carnoso, lleno de energía. Alegre, sabroso, muy agradable de beber con una cantidad importantísima de frutos rojos reducidos y finos amargosos. Alegre, vivo. Qué rica garnacha disponía las bodegas Azpilicueta en esa época!!! Todavía tiene que limar alguna arista enmedio de tanto empuje y pegada. Largo, permanente, con retronasal a licor de endrinas.

60% tempranillo, 25% garnacha, 15% mazuelo.
Permanece durante 24 meses en grandes depósitos de madera en los que finaliza la fermentación maloláctica y se estabiliza antes de ser trasegado. Sometido a crianza durante 60 meses en barricas usadas de roble americano de 225 litros con una edad media de 12 años. Embotellado entre junio y octubre de 1972. Un mínimo de 48 meses de guarda en botellero en los calados de la bodega antes de ser comercializado.

De color rubí marronoso de capa media, algo turbio, granulado, con una gran cantidad de precipitados en la base de la botella. Reflejos anaranjados, mate. Borde amplísimo, completamente atejado, sin diferencias con el menisco.

Al abrir se muestra deslabazado, difícil, poco armónico. Hay apuntes de lodo, yodados, carbón vegetal, alcanfor, chimenea, y mucho más pero sin ninguna coherencia. Tras un par de horas de espera no ha acaba de mejorar. Salen cremosos y especias dulces, vainilla, nuez moscada, pero sin que encaje el rompecabezas.

En boca algo mejor. Maduro, grueso, con mucha sensación de madera que no se ha integrado y una acidez casi plana. Hay amargosos y un final vegetal que con imaginación diríamos que es agradable. Una añada desgraciada que apenas ha sido capaz de aguantar el paso del tiempo. Esta botella se guardó en unas condiciones excepcionales junto a otras añadas de la misma bodega que han llegado a día de hoy en condiciones muy dignas. Y es que cuando no se puede es que no se puede, por mucho que te empeñes!! No nos explicamos por qué se embotelló este vino y se vendió con la etiqueta del Marqués del Romeral Gran Reserva cuando debería haberse vendido como Romeral, a secas. Mejor no puntuar.

Aged Rioja's and a Ribera (NYC): very nice showing. Still has plenty of life, but would say this on the downward slope. Tasting stronger elements of sherry than other notes, but still very enjoyable.

Dark red appearance.
Nose is violets, vanilla, tobacco.
Taste is blackcurrant, though not over fruity, leather, oak. Finishes strongly of cherry.
A subtle and enjoyable rioja.

at B'day M. Initially somewhat maderized - but came round nicely even though it remained a bit port like. Still good acidity structure in the back.

Deep nose of spices, cinnamon, clove, dried herbs and a touch vanilla oak, quite alluring at the beginning! Not a fruity nose I'm sure! Quite dense on the palate but surely lacking a little bit complexity! Given this is a ten year old wine! The color is deep ruby, very healthy! Guess the bottle has at least five to ten years to go! I pair the wine with goose, Chiu-Chow style! Which is absolutely wonderful! If it develops more complexity in the future, definitely will gain a point or two!
