Bodegas Roda I 2005

Bodegas Roda I 2005

This is definitely a serious beast when you compare its stable mate.  It almost reminds me of a party I had at my neighbours place last summer when he had the BBQ cranked up and the meats flying off the hot plate. With this wine you also get violets, shoe polish and plenty of dark fruits rolled in a variety of Christmas spices.  This is supremely inviting stuff on the nose but the palate takes it up a level with the tannins staying until the end of the party. They are invasive yet inviting at the same time.  Whilst I could drink it now, be patient and you will rewarded handsomely.
