López de Heredia 'Viña Bosconia' Reserva Rioja 2013

Bosconia is as classic as Rioja gets. Think plumb, cherry, macerated strawberries, of old cedar wood, dried porcini mushrooms, tan leather and dried orange with a little clove, and bags of acidity. Plenty of oak here too giving the wine a nice lifted sweet scented feel. Very luxurious - very delicious. 

For 146 years, four generations of the López de Heredia family have devoted themselves to producing exceptional and unique wines. Masterpieces which have achieved that which the founder of the company, Rafael López de Heredia y Landeta, defined in the late nineteenth century as the "Supreme Rioja".

Vineyard care, a scrupulous selection of grapes, ageing in oak barrels in the heart of deep underground galleries, and the later ageing in bottles, all contribute to making these illustrious wines with their exceptional bouquet.
