Señorío de San Vicente Rioja San Vicente 1994
Selected with intention
The 1994 Señorío de San Vicente Rioja San Vicente is a rare and extraordinary mature expression of Tempranillo Peludo from this pioneering single-varietal estate in Rioja Alavesa. The '94 vintage is considered one of Rioja's finest, yielding wines of remarkable structure and longevity. This San Vicente displays a beautiful garnet hue with amber reflections and an intoxicating bouquet of dried red fruit, tobacco, leather, and balsamic notes, interwoven with cedar and exotic spices. On the palate, it is gracefully evolved, with supple tannins and a beautiful balance of savory fruit and tertiary complexity. The acidity remains vibrant, leading to an exceptionally long, harmonious finish that speaks of its noble origins. A truly magnificent and contemplative Rioja, drinking perfectly now.
