  Fin, men kanskje mer moden enn jeg foretrekker allerede. Sjekk neste flaske.

  Light and lifted and tart. This is not a young wine, but comes across incredibly youthful. Really needs a lot time. Still fresh at 9pm despite being opened in afternoon.

  Medium garnet. there's a little sour lactic note at first, followed by toast and smoke, but then the fruit comes in - red cherries and red plums mainly, then some dry/dusty earth and licorice. The palate is midweight, acid +, tannin - this is a little pinched on the finish by the acid so that it's more something to take to dinner than a weeknight pour.

  Delicious Rioja. decanted an hour. fruit just starting to peek out. Slightly tannic, cedar box , pencil lead. Plum cherry, still so youthful at 16 yrs old. Fruit flavors are not even close to being secondary and are still vibrantly fresh Gonna drink half the bottle tonight and half tomorrow. Significantly more times than not I like bosconia more than tondonia. If you are young and new to collecting wine, it would be criminal if you did not buy a handful of bottles of heredia bosconia upon release and drink it years later. There’s not many wines in the wine universe you can buy at these prices that are already aged upon release and then age beautifully for an eternity.
  Day 2: fruit drying up but not turning brown. I enjoyed more day 1.

  Still young. 5 years and it will really shine. Even at this early period it is an exuberant and spicy nose of cedar wood, allspice, and red berries .On the palate is silky, almost creamy, loads of all kinds of cherries, and other red berries, followed by earthy notes. Still plenty of of lively acidity and soft tannins. Exquisite wine, tons of life.
