el bosque is eguren family top-shelf rioja that's a knockout. it's dark as night, with dusty aromas of cola, cocoa, marzipan, blackberry and spice all rolled into a finessed whole. feels tight as a drum but balanced, with monstrous flavors of boysenberry, cassis, peppercorn, baking spices and chocolate. young and raring to go; hold until 2013 then drink through 2018.
