Description

Benjamin Romeo Rioja 2001
Contador
owc
Double-Magnum (1)
"Fashioned from three parcels of 80-year old, 70-year old, and 65-year old vines, it spends 12 months in new French oak prior to being bottled without fining or filtration. It boasts a dense purple color along with a sumptuous nose of melted chocolate, espresso roast, creme de cassis, cherries, and flowers. Dense and full-bodied as well as impeccably seamless, pure, and balanced, this is a beauty!" (98pts Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #152, April 2004)
