Reserva Raïms de la Immortalitat Penedès Red Blend 2008

9.0

The Grapes of Immortality as Salvador Dali painted them -- this wine made by Dali's family friends from Penedes is not DO as it's made from Cab Sauv and Petite Syrah varieties. It is though a rich and well balanced fruity wine that is beginning to open up tertiary animal and mushroom aromas. Black currants and cherries lead, it is subtly oaked with spice and some lingering black pepper. Finish, tannins and acidity are medium though. My fruit lead style of red I like, lacks some complexity — 11 years ago

Starting a love affair with vinho verde. All the underripe granny smith and lime zest. Hell yes. — 12 years ago

Kind of like if Grenache was grown in Bordeaux. About to go great with some steaks. Thanks @garagiste! — 11 years ago

Busted loose the 2008 to assess early drinking potential. A sacrifice of one bottle for five. Honestly, there is something about 2008 Brunellos that are less austere/classic than 2006, but do not possess that tiny bit of burn from the heat of 2007. So, drink earlier (now) or wait for another 4-7 years. 2008s are drinkers and keepers. — 12 years ago
