Bodegas R. Lopez de Heredia Viña Bosconia Reserva Red 2012 pinot-noir giving us a full-bodied Shiraz92 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.
