Jose Gil - Rioja Labastida 2021
Price: $59.99
Sale Price: $49.99
"Deep purplish ruby colour, full of brambly, dark fruit and pencil shavings on the nose. This is a powerful, dense wine in terms of fruit but it has such a saline freshness underneath. The palate has chalky, persistent tannins that tightly frame the exuberant fruit at the core. With air, herbal, graphite tones akin to Cabernet Franc start to shine through, blending beautifully with the dark fruit at the core. Layered, precise and long on the finish, this is impressive. No extended new oak ageing here, as with all Jose Gil's cuvées, and the wine is all the better for it. This should appeal to right bank Bordeaux lovers, especially those who like St Emilion with a good hit of Franc in it." -93 points, Thomas Parker, Farr Vintners
