Tasting Notes

Robert Parker Wine Advocate Jay Miller - 29 Feb 08
The 2006 Antonini Izquierdo is a bit more reticent and structured. Intense, layered and complex, it too requires extended cellaring and should be at its peak from 2018-2040. This is the debut wine in this journal from Antonino Izquierdo. It appears to be a name worth remembering. Importer: Hidalgo Imports, Miami, FL; www.hidalgoimports.com
