Lighter in color than the much older 1969, but much more expressive aromatically, dusty, sandy red-fruited aromas, flavors tend toward red-fruit as well, more of an elegant style of Ramisco, long finish, this seems at peak, or close to it (but I have more bottles, so will check in again within a year). Both of these are amazing at 11% ABV!! — 8 months ago

This is the third (and last) bottle of 1969 we’ve tried in the past 5 years, and the first starting to show some clear decline, with a green asparagus note that shows on the palate and into the medium-long finish, but still, 55-year-old Ramisco?!?! Wow! — 8 months ago

Pale lemon with aromas of citrus and tropical fruit with herb floral notes. On the palate flavors of grapefruit, green apple and pear fruit with some grassy tones, lively acidity. Medium+ finish ending with fruit, earthy herbs, floral, grassy and mineral notes. — 3 years ago

Ramisco from Colares is one of my bucket list experiences so anytime I get to share (& it must be shared!)a bottle it’s a special experience indeed. Truffle, aged bark, blackberry must on nose; on palate those notes plus sour cherry concentrate, cassis, & forest leaves all in a light medium body. Did not decant & wondered if mildly corked (vs needing air). I experience these wines as remarkably evocative, & find my self transported to, for example, my English grandfather’s library in London,as a child, which I suppose is another way of saying it’s a”contemplative” wine. I also find the 500ml format an excellent way to sample aged, noble wine like this- the Goldilocks of proportion. I humbly bow to my dear friend for breaking this out. — 5 months ago
25%, Cab, 25% Syrah, 25% Petit Verdot and 25% Touriga Nacional - this blend is most exquisite with notes of raspberries, sherry and wet oak. On the palette, rich flavors of black pepper, black fruits and pistachios. Full flavor, medium tannins and a lingering finish. Let this one breathe a bit prior to drinking. Cheers!! — 9 months ago
