Today I tortured myself. Choosing just one bottle from the most elaborate (and friendly priced) winelist I have ever seen makes every pick a bad one, because you are 100% certain there would have been a better choice. Eventually I went for the '95 (a great year in Rioja) of the same producer, as I wanted to drink aged Rioja, but it was out of stock. The sommelier recommended the '73 instead; a great advise. Fantastic wine, elegant in every sip.

A lovely wine. Plums, red currants, and blackberries. Earthy, smokey, and full-bodied with a very satisfying finish.

A glass shared by a table near us. Very generous! A real pleasure to taste this 34 yr old Rioja. Still very much alive and delicious.
