Viña Bosconia Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend

Powerful and stoic wine at this point. Needs 10 years to unwind.

graceful and relatively open without a decant, showing a classic, old school Rioja feel. even better when circling back on day three 🍓🏇🍄‍🟫⛰️

Fantastic Reserva. Lil bit of maturity funk on the nose, Elevated acidity, plays very well with food, paired with beef empanadas. Woody tannin notes. What really stands out is the note of orange oil, exciting and tasty, and what secured my purchase.. drink now

Showed little age as being a 2012, consumed in 2024. But quite nice.

Expected more a funk powerhouse but it was very elegant.

Very good Rioja. Classic in style. Red fruits, dried cherry, herbal and a little earthy. With mushroom and tomato pasta. Let’s see how it holds up on day 2. Honestly too hot and humid for this kind of meal, but it’s what I have on hand!

Day 2: Still great, but became a little pruney. I prefer the freshness on day 1.

Another banger!

Birthday celebration special wine - Mira’s. . Very good.

Fruit and soft vanilla on the nose; really tart and tannin-y but not too tannin-y. Not quite the body I’m looking for.
