VIÑA REAL RESERVA ESPECIAL 1947, 1948, 1949 & 1950 (4 Bottles) C.V.N.E. - (Haro, La Rioja) Rioja Vintage Rating 1948: EXCELLENT Rioja Vintage Rating 1947 & 1949: VERY GOOD Rioja Vintage Rating 1950: NORMAL VIÑA REAL RESERVA ESPECIAL 1949: Robert Parker92/100 "I've been lucky enough to have encountered the magnificent 1949 Viña Real Reserva Especial on a couple of occasions. That year the People's Republic of China was founded, while Germany split into two countries and NATO was created. George Orwell wrote the novel "1984." These old bottles are unpredictable and on previous occasions I've found very strong reduction. Even though the vintage was certainly excellent, at age sixty-something, there are no great vintages, only great bottles. The year saw a relatively long vegetative cycle (205days). The wine was not bottled until June 1963, 14 years after the harvest! Unfortunately, this wine showed some evolution, with some toffee notes, and felt quite fragile, suffering in comparison with the 1947, 1954 or 1949. But overall, I think it was a surprising and different wine. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025."
