Bodegas Ramirez De La Piscina "Gran Reserva" Rioja 2016

Jeb Dunnuck : 94 Points

(7/3/2024) Lastly, the 2016 Gran Reserva is gorgeous, offering a pure cassis, leather, leafy herb, and graphite-driven perfume as well as a rounded, layered, seamless style on the palate that offers tons to love. It's still structured and will evolve for another 15-20 years with ease. Maturity: 2024 - 2044.

Wine Enthusiast : 94 Points

(3/1/2023) Inky ruby to the eye, this wine has a bouquet of black cherry, cassis, thyme and lavender. It is spicy at first sip, with plush tannins and flavors of anisette, clove, fruits of the wood and chocolate with a touch of mint. As tannins and spice peel away, brighter fruit notes appear on the palate and head into the enduring finish.
