Lopez de Heredia Rioja Vina Bosconia Reserva 2005  - First Bottle

Reviews

94 Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate -
A worthy follow up to the 2004 is the 2005 Vina Bosconia Reserva, a wine that they consider the most rustic and powerful in the winery, but that I find as elegant and subtle as it gets. This feels very much in line with the 2004, maybe a notch above even, a lower yielding year. The nose is somehow closed and feels young with the elegant rusticity lurking from the bottom of the glass, clean and precise. The tannins are velvety and there is great acidity--a constant here. The wine is terribly elegant. I simply loved this wine. 99,000 bottles were filled in June 2011. -- Luis Gutierrez in Issue #226, August 2016

Heredia is SO legit. If you know, you know. An unapologetically old-school classic, this new release (yes!) is as the 94-point review notes, TERRIBLY ELEGANT. Indeed. It's got a rustic edge, but it's brilliantly fine and silky.

About the Producer

It all started in the middle of the nineteenth century when French negociants visited the Rioja region to find alternative sources of quality grapes to transform into wine, since the phylloxera epidemic had decimated their vineyards. Don Rafael Lopez de Heredia y Landeta, a knowledgeable and enthusiastic student in the art of wine making, followed closely in their footsteps. For 141 years, four generations of the Lopez de Heredia family have devoted themselves to producing exceptional and unique wines.
