Telmo Rodriguez LZ Lanzeigo de Álava 2003
Rioja, SpainBlack cherry jam, wet tobacco leaf, barnyard, smoky aromas waft from the glass. Rich and smooth LZ comes with light tannins, fine intensity of flavour with big black plum, black cherry, licorice, spicy, tobacco and a touch of chocolate. A bit dry but could use a year or two aging or try with grilled lamb or goat. Good value, fine fruit, well done.Tasted: 29 March 2005Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $18.99 | 750ml | specialty listing |
