Miniscule production of high elevation, old-vine, single vineyard Mencia. A lukewarm first run with this producer. Light-to-medium red. Dark-fruited and earthy, with good energy and tight-knit tannins. Finishes with a bean-like character which I often see in natural wines that's got a little too much air. I'm not fond of the character, but if you can get past that, it's a nice tipple. — 4 years ago
This was great. Style held up well to (Vintage meathook!) steak and was a good value on the restaurant wine list. Tannins worked well with steak but we’re more robust than I expected. Improved with some air. — 6 years ago
Bodegas Zifar’s entry-level wine, 100% Tempranillo from vineyards growing at over 2,000 ft above sea level near Pesquera, Ribera del Duero. Part of it fermented in French oak vats, the rest in steel vats, then aged for 12 months in new French oak barrels. Smooth, balanced, red fruit, hints of vanilla and liquorice — 7 years ago

100% Grenache from Madrid. Huge on the organics. Smoke, Earth and rubber on the nose. Earthy and minerals on the pallet. Jammy Fruit notes are prevalent on the mid-pallet. Complex and bold. Best with food. Quite a unique expression of an Old World wine. — 7 years ago
