Señorío de Amézola Reserva

  • 2002 Señorío de Amézola Reserva – Spain, La Rioja, La Rioja Alavesa, Rioja (6/22/2009) Gorgeous blackberry, warm dark chocolate mousse, sawdust, spice box and tanned leather on the nose. Wow, in the mouth this wine is lush and giving, showing a racy acidity with medium firm tannins, and a sumptuous body that ebbs into a long dark fruit finish. This is a big-me-up wine, with it’s vivacity and liveliness, for those days you feel the weight of the world upon your shoulder. 4/5

  • 2002 Señorío de Amézola Reserva – Spain, La Rioja, La Rioja Alavesa, Rioja (6/22/2009)Deep chocolaty nose with old wood and cherry fruit. Love the balance on the nose of dusty history, and vanilla fruit. In the mouth this is a lush wine, with great fruit, and traditional Rioja spice. Tastes like the deepest cellar, with a freshness and lively attitude. This tastes like Rioja. Well done. 4/5
