Wine of the Week
2001 Finca Allende Rioja, Spain
Robert Parker's tasting notes: "Bottled unfiltered for the USA market, the 2001 Allende exhibits a dense ruby/purple color along with a sumptuous nose of figs, black currants, blackberries, cigar box, and smoky vanilla. Full-bodied, rich, and opulent, with great purity, density, and length, it should be consumed over the next 6-7 years". 93 points.
Dabbler's tasting notes: "Mmmmmmmmm. Yummy." Two thumbs and one big toe up.
Available at Wine House in Los Angeles, or at PJs Wine in New York. $20

Had this wine several months ago, and it was superb. Good deal.
