The texture is very fine and the acidity seems like if it had a timer and shoots a second later than you expect it

There are very mild hints of match stick and exoticism to the ripe and fresh nose of mostly yellow orchard fruit aromas that are liberally laced with floral and hazelnut nuances

It is a long way from ready

There is once again excellent richness

For the patient as this is very much a smaller-scaled Bonnes Mares that is well worth checking out

Telmo Rodriguez, Altos Lanzaga other_regions The texture is very fineRed ruby color. Wild aromas of cassis, redcurrant, blueberry, graphite, violet, minerals and licorice. Very concentrated flavors of blueberry and oak; much more elegant and refined less wild than the 2001 Lanzaga. Finishes with substantial, building, oak powered tannins that coat the entire palate. Aged in all new French barriques for 18 months. In contrast to the "regular" Lanzaga, this calls for at least a couple years of additional bottle aging.
