What a great surprise. I had 3 bottles left of 2005. One I had today 3/19/23. This was by far the best!!! This wine is getting better after 18 years… wow… Decanted for 30 minutes. Didn’t need much more. Beautiful aromas and flavors of oak vanilla tobacco cherry plum blackberry chocolate black fruit pepper dark fruit cedar raspberry prune coffee coconut. Very smooth full body. Perhaps the best Rioja I ever had. Definitely up there…
