Viña Almaviva S.A.
Baron Philippe Rothschild Red Bordeaux Blend
Deep Ruby color with the faintest hint of garnet at the rim, lovely aromas and flashes of a still youthful, developing wine. Plush, velvety tannin balanced with firm acidity gives the wine a good foundation the classy flavors of cassis, blackberry, blueberry, black cherry, violet, Red plum and black plum, mint, vanilla, cedar and smoke. Beginning to show tertiary character with a dried cherry, dried tobacco leaf and dried violet. Elegant and still a decade of life ahead

Oct 24th, 2023Deep Ruby color, very aromatic and surprisingly approachable for its youth. Plenty of plush, velvety tannin underlining the classy ripeness of the wine. Cassis, blackberry, blueberry, black cherry, violet, Red plum and black plum, a faint aroma of mint, vanilla, cedar and smoke. Only beginning to show tertiary character with a bit of dried cherry and dried tobacco leaf. Elegant and plenty of finesse.

Oct 24th, 2023Rich extracts of ripe blue berry and black cherry. Super present tannins but fully integrated and smooth. Solid earthy undertones settling on the finish.

Dec 20th, 2021Oak, mint. Smooth from begging. A bit sweet. Black currant major. Later on, a bit spicy. Start drinking after 1.5 hours decanting, and 6 hours. Maybe, it is better to wait for a few years. It is difficult to decant it perfectly within a few hours. But gentle even from 1.5 hours (even just opening, ok to drink, but of course a bit solid) that is different from Bordeaux. 2017 @5000, R, 210625
