Bodegas Castillo Labastida - Reserva Especial Manuel Quintano 2001

Rioja|Red wine

3.6/5 (5 customers)

Rating: Robert Parker 92+/100, Wine Spectator 91/100
The winery’s expertise, combined with a vintage marked by exceptional weather conditions in Rioja, has resulted in this outstanding Manuel Quintano cuvée. Complex, with aromas of ripe fruit and tobacco; notes of cinnamon and spices emerge upon aeration, with beautiful tannins on the palate and, above all, plenty of freshness leading to a delicious, long finish. Superb!
