LAGAR DE ROBLA PREMIUM 2012 Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y León |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
VIÑOS DE ARGANZA |
Extremely deep intense purple colour. Surprisingly youthful, very juicy, spicy, still fresh, plum-apple nose. Dry, medium bodied, tangy, high acid, very juicy, plummy, apple sauce flavours with a crisp, gently cedary finish. An inexpensive, ready-to-drink, entry-level style. This REPEAT has 14% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar (according to the LCBO the last batch has 6 g/L residual sugar) with a new lot number L25OL on the back label. The 2012 (*/*+) was last released on June 11, 2016 at $13.95. You can safely ignore the 91-point tasting note appearing in the Vintages Catalogue from December 31, 2014. At $12.95 there is nothing wrong with this wine, except that you can do much better! |

TASTING NOTE: This firm red is reserved, but shows depth and integration, with mulled plum, licorice, mineral and smoke flavors that mingle over well-integrated tannins, giving way to the juicy finish. Drink now through 2022. 35,000 cases made. Smart Buys. Score - 91 (Thomas Matthews, winespectator.com, Dec. 31, 2014) |
