Terrible photo from Sunday night, in La Paz.

89 Palmer and 12 Ridge Monte Bello, in the line up; both mildly corked.

Best wine of the night was the Alma Oculta, Vischoqueña. A tiny producer from the Cinti Valley, in Bolivia.

I don't even like Vischoqueña, as a red; so I have never made one.

This one, however, had everything I had been chasing in my five vintages in Bolivia.

I have always been striving for the "Burgundy" of the Andes (which I believe I have a achevied, for the 25s).

However, this producer has made something better than I have ever done.

Respect!
