Wine Advocate (94)The 2006 Pagos Viejos is sourced from Tempranillo vines over 75 years of age and aged for 18 months in new French oak. The wine is inky purple with a sublime nose of pain grille, graphite, black cherry, wild blue fruits, and blackberry. This leads to a dense, plush, remarkably elegant wine which is already exhibiting some complexity. While rich enough to be enjoyed now, it will improve for 5-7 years and be at its best from 2015 to 2030. |

Wine Advocate (98)The 2006 Pingus is a spectacular effort. A glass-staining saturated opaque purple, it delivers an other-worldly perfume of smoke, lavender, mineral, scorched earth, and an amalgam of kinky black fruits. Voluptuous on the palate in a measured way, it has superb balance, layered, complex flavors, ripe tannin that is entirely covered by the fruit, and a decade of aging potential. This monumental wine will evolve effortlessly for 10-15 years and offer a drinking window extending from 2016 to 2036. |

Experience the intense flavour and delight of the Remirez de Ganuza Rioja Reserva 2006, a vibrant embodiment of Spanish craftsmanship. Renowned winemaker, Fernando Remirez de Ganuza, utilises a careful blend of predominantly Tempranillo, with a small blend of Graciano grapes, sourced from their oldest vineyards in the heart of Rioja Alavesa. Notable for its meticulous production process, only the shoulders or the thickest parts of the grapes are used, fermented in new French oak barrels. The 2006 vintage enchants with a deep, ruby-red hue, an aromatic bouquet of wild berries and hints of spice, with an exquisite balance of smoked toffee. The palate introduces a powerful presence, offering an intricate blend of fruit, oak, and mineral notes with a long, structured finish. The Remirez de Ganuza Rioja Reserva 2006 provides not only a sip of wine but a savoured taste of tradition and the essence of Rioja. |

James Suckling (100)Incredibly floral and beautiful with dark berry, spice, cedar and mint. Chinese plums. Asian spices. Bark. Tea. Full body, dense and so soft and complex. The finish goes on for minutes. Endless and fine. January 2017 release. This reminds me of the gorgeous 1991 or 1964. Drink forever. A wine that you want to spend time with. |
