Sale on Allende Rioja!

Jim tried this on his most recent trip to Spain as a barrel tasting. He says "it was the single best cuveé we tasted under $75. Phenomenal wine. It blows Muga out of the water." He called it his reward for 2100 miles on a bus, adding "I've been waiting patiently for it to come in and now it's here."

Parker 92 "The 2004 Allende, a 100% Tempranillo cuvee, was barrel fermented in a mix of new and used French oak, remained in barrel for 13 months, and was bottled unfiltered. The wine is inky purple-colored and has a superb nose of pain grille, mineral, violets, cranberry, and blueberry. The youthful palate reveals layers of fruit, ripe tannin, and excellent balance. The wine merits another 3-4 years of bottle age and should drink well through 2020. Kudos to Finca Allende for a magnificent set of 2004 Riojas!"
