Ramos Pinto Vintage

It has a voluminous attack because of its exuberance and lots of fruity traits. Primary flavors such as cherry, blackberry, plum and raspberry, with a hint of cinnamon. It offers a compact, long finish.

Winemaker notes

An intense and very opaque violet colour. It has a complex aroma that combines red fruits with spices and notes of dark chocolate and pepper. On the palate it is well-structured, very full-bodied and joins with a flavour of ripe but very intense fruit and energetic tannins that give it great ageing potential. An extremely persistent and intense finish.

2003

Wine Enthusiast 94: The wine is big, full, opulent and super-ripe. But the tannins are also there, giving a dark, brooding edge, which comes through powerfully on the finish. This is the best vintage yet from this Roederer-owned house.

Wine Spectator 94: Wonderful aromas of crushed blackberries and currants. Full-bodied, with round, ripe tannins and fabulously rich fruit. Medium sweet and gripping. Ramos-Pinto's best ever.
