95 Points James Suckling

Savory aromas of subtle earthy berries, oranges, iron and hints of walnut, tobacco and mushrooms. Fine tannins with high acidity on the palate with juicy, savory berries and a long, citrusy finish. A hint of tertiary caramel character at the end, making this very complex and complete. 

 

93 Wine Advocate 

The 2012 Viña Bosconia Reserva is perhaps a little too young (María José López de Heredia likes more polished wines, and for her this wine was too tough), with some tannins and the chalky texture from the limestone soils. This blend of Tempranillo with 15% Garnacho and 5% between Graciano and Mazuelo matured in used American oak barrels for five years.

 

92 Points Wine Spectator

Notes of tar, dried flowers and licorice are enticing on the nose of this sleek red, accenting flavors of dried raspberry, fig cake, loamy earth, leather and iron that glide across the fresh palate. This is silky in texture, offering a fine cloak for the robust core of tannins that emerges to firm the savory finish. Tempranillo, Garnacho, Graciano and Mazuelo. Drink now through 2032. 7,166 cases made, 5,000 cases imported.

 

Winemaker Notes

This wine has evolved perfectly showing a deep ruby color with shades of orange. Its nose is persistent, full bodied and showing a lot of mature fruit, being dominated by the Tempranillo grape. Its taste is round, smooth, fresh, full of body and persistent.
