| 2004 Bodegas Hornillos Ballesteros Mibal Seleccion | 750 ML | $31.99 | 93 Points! Robert Parker's Wine Advocate # 169 Feb 2007 Reviewer: Jay Miller. The 2004 Mibal Seleccion is a barrel selection of the best lots and spent 14 months in French oak. It further raises the bar with its saturated, glass-coating purple color, super-expressive, exotic nose of pain grille, spice box, wild blueberry, smoked meat, and licorice. On the palate, this thick and opulent wine has gobs of spicy black fruit flavors, enough structure for 4-6 years of further evolution, and a beautifully delineated, long finish. It should drink well through 2020. A true “garage” Bodegas (the winery is in a garage in the town of Roa), these small production cuvees of 100% Tempranillo are uniformly outstanding. Drink 2011-2020. Mibal Winemaker: Juan Manuel Burgos | http://www.oleimports.com/ |
