2018 Proelio (Vinoteca Palacios) Tempranillo Rioja Puerto Rubiomore |
4/13/2024 - Kike Sola Likes this wine: 93 pointsTempranillo of 50-60-year-old vineyards located on a slope of calcareous gravel with outcrops of the mother rock in the Sonsierra Riojana (San Vicente de la Sonsierra) at an altitude of 488 m. Ferment with yeasts from the vineyard, malolactic in a 4000 L oak tub and 18-month aging in 2000 L French oak barrels and subsequent assembly in a 4000 L wooden truncated barrel. Ripe black fruit, balsamic, mineral, direct, fresh, silky, elegant, fine, long and persistent. Nice wine! |

1/4/2024 - Glenn Gilbert Likes this wine: 88 points14.5% alcohol; imported by Musk & Co, Miami, Florida; the vineyard is located in Nalda, in Rioja, at the extreme southwest of the Logron~o urban area, about 10 km from the city center; composite 45 mm cork with 5 mm and 4 mm real cork facings at the ends, maximum of 5 mm wine seepage into the cork; faint whiff of wet cork laced with fruit; foil is light to medium weight; medium to long legs, solid garnet color; nose of alcohol, tannins, coffee/chocolate, root vegetables, berries, not necessarily in that order; opened, oxygenation accelerated via Vinturi, tasted 20 minutes later at 18 degrees C (16-18 is recommended by the vintner) in a Luigi Bormioli wine glass designed for cabernet sauvignon/merlot; full bodied, sharp tannins stabbing at the the front and middle of the tongue, a dry minerality in the background running the full length of the tongue; definitely not fruit forward, more in the direction of coffee/chocolate effect, first noticed in the nose, going all the way through the long finish, which is bounded by minerals and not by bitterness; the wine has an upbeat mouthfeel which makes it suitable for pairing with red meats, or possibly with cheeses, salted nuts, and other hors d'ouvres and dessert foods; or enjoy it solo, which doesn't necessarily mean by yourself, but rather not accompanied by food |

4/28/2023 - WindFlyer Likes this wine: 91 pointsRioja young wines: medium-dark ruby in the glass, the nose has lovely aromas of red fruits (raspberry, strawberries) laced with herbs (thyme, tarragon) and whiffs of lavender and leather. full-feeling but very fresh in the mouth, the fruit uncoils slowly in the mid-palate. brambly and spicy notes add lovely depth carried on by dusty tannins that still need a bit of integration. fairly long finish with herbal notes. |

9/28/2018 - chatters wrote: NRFlight home (In the air): Ripe red berries, cream, vanilla, butter as well as se chocolate and some fresh black plum. On the palate it's juicy and a little sour (fresh?) than the nose implies. Tannins are more controlled than I would have thought. Silky and supportive of the fruit. This is fairly straightforward but nice none the less and balanced. |

11/21/2015 - Zweder wrote: 88 pointsRetailer tasting (@ The factory): The bouquet is still a bit locked, but shows good dark forest fruits and some sweet spices. On the palate a mouth filling wine with juicy dark berries, vanilla, good acidity and round, slightly drying tannin with a good bite. Really nice wine. 88+ |
