August 25, 2019 - My first R. Lopez H Blanco. With much excitement and anticipation, and at worst case, this was a new wine experience that had my absolute attention and challenged me as to what I consider desirable qualities in a wine. I dont really get into oxidative traits, never really enjoyed a Jura, and this nose unapologetically so. My SO tapped out right away, “Dale, love ya, not for me’’. But once beyond this point, the wine had the most beautifully dry, powerful chiseled qualities, reminding me of a strong vintage of Les Clos. I realize decanting would have been helpful, but I spent a lot of time merging the two personalities, and ultimatlety, came away impressed and ready to try an 05 Tondonia Blanco soon. Oh, drank out of a Riedel Chardonnay Extreme and this had the most beautiful golden color.
