- Mulch - 01-06-2005 Hola I am located in Perth, Western Australia and have been lucky enough to have some great friends in Spain. They have given me some wines which I would like to keep as long as possible, but not past their best drinking age. I was hoping someone out there with more knowledge on Spanish Wines might be able to tell when I should drink the following wines... Coto De Imaz Rioja 1995 Denominacion de Origen Calificada Reserva 25 Aniversario La Rioja Alta SA Vina Alberdi Rioja Reserva 1998 Marques de Caceres Vendimia Seleccionada 1999 Rioja Beunos Dias Amigos Cheers John (The Mulch) Perth Western Australia - dananne - 01-06-2005 Welcome to the board. I have not had the pleasure of your wines, but have had many from those producers. IMHO, all are approachable now. The '95 Imaz was from a good year. I'd drink it anytime between now and 5 years from now. After that, it may be on the downslope. The others are "drink sooner than laters," but should go for at least 3 more. Enjoy! |
