Sipping Fine Wine

9.5

Blend of mostly Tempranillo with about equal amounts of Garnacho, Graciano and Manzuelo, deep Ruby with a graceful bouquet of berry fruits, cigar box spice with fresh earthy tones, a traditional Rioja, still reticent. On the silky smooth palate, elegant with layers of flavors of ripe blackberry and cherry, tobacco, smoky cedar, dark fruit, vanilla spice, very well balanced with fine soft tannins and a clean structure ending with a nice long chalky earthy character. Delicious! — 9 days ago

Absolut outstanding rosé. Was looking for years to finally drink it. and I was not disappointed. Aged cherry and strawberry notes witha hint of tannins, a hint of smokey tobaccos, etc etc etc — 2 months ago

A blend of 80% Tempranillo with 15% Garnacha, rest Graciano and Mazuelo, aged 5 years in American oak, deep Ruby with aromas of ripe jammy fruits, spice and tobacco notes, resulting from a warm dry growing season. On the palate flavors of ripe plum, blueberry and ripe cherry with spice, tobacco and cedar notes. Fine big rustic tannins, long finish, savory ending with tobacco and leather notes. Nice! — 9 days ago

One of my faves. The unique iodine taste of a Spanish rioja paired beautifully with the duck. Wow. — 10 days ago

Not for beginners, it feels easy to say this is oxidized, but it’s so much more if you pay attention and do not drink it all in one sitting, which will be difficult. — 12 days ago

Deep ruby. Plenty of spice with cocoa and oak. Very interesting. Mediums tannins. Another great Nickel & Nickel wine. — a month ago

This wine is drinking very well now after some years of ageing. Fruit depth of dark raspberry and cherry, a bit of smoke, pleasant herbs and a bit of oak. Good complexity and intensity, Lapierre lives up to its status on this one. — 12 days ago
