This wine from Remelluri 2005 Rioja Blanco, is my second and last bottle ( previous bottle opened at Joel's and Sally's on Fri. before MoCool) and again it was quite nice with free-range chicken breast and grilled zucchini with rosemary butter. The color was medium/deep straw and the palate was full of spicey pear with an obvious note of pine resin. It was very viscous and well balanced with great acidity. I think this wine could age for at least 10 more years as opposed to RMP who says drink up by 2015 and gave a 92 point . From a close-out bin at Party Source, I am sure I will never find this again at $30.00.
