Description

Robert Parker tasted this wine in 2012 and gave it a massive 94 points, writing:
"The 2010 JC Vizcarra, also 100% Tempranillo, was aged 15 months in French and American oak. A truly great wine, it boasts a dense purple color along with notes of camphor, creme de cassis, licorice, damp earth and forest floor. The beautiful fragrance is accompanied by a wine with a full-bodied, opulent texture, and a voluptuous, luxurious mouthfeel as well as finish. Drink this beauty over the next 7-10 years.

These are sensational values from the highly renowned appellation of Ribera del Duero."

Having tasted the wine, I think the great man was a little bit overgenerous that day,as the wine hasn't quite the level of complexity I would look for in any wine rated that highly. But it is undoubtedly an extremely good and deeply flavoured wine, well worth trying!
