| Ribera del Duero VIZCARRA Roble 2001 13% Alc. RRP in Spain is $8
Beautiful intense deep cherry color still with blueish hues. Nose initially of plum crystal drops, then very creamy/lactic, eventually integrating into a fine balanced and powerful young Tinto Fino, with lead pencil (or actually pencil lead, as I believe it should be cf. the Squires board discussion re this), good red and black berry fruit and a balsamic hint plus spice (pepper). In the palate it is obviously still young, with good integration and balance already to accompany hearty food, but will grow in bottle in the course of the next few months. Pretty good wine at quaffer prices. 87-88
