Jessie's Zin Mount Bullion Vineyards Zinfandel 2018

Ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Red and black fruits on the nose with tobacco leaf, light oak, chocolates and light forest floor.

Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with black plums, black currants, cooked cherries, cedar, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, peppercorn, chocolates, herbs, light alcohol, spices and light earth.

Long finish with fine grained tannins, raspberries and spices.

This is a very tasty and easy drinking Zinfandel. Fruit forward and rich. Complex and entertaining with a nice mouthfeel. Nicely balanced, spicy and tangy.

Needs an hour in the decanter to open up and show the nose.

Good by itself as a sipping wine, and will pair nicely with a burger and fries.

Lalama Ribeira Sacra Mencía

2016. Mencía, Brancellao, Mouratón y Sousón que, además, lleva un pequeño aporte de Garnacha tintorera. Atlántico, afrutado, mineral, herbáceo y con notas balsámicas. He copiado las notas de cata porque me ha parecido un vino muy complejo que merece la pena probar. 16€ aprox. Excelente caldo. — 4 years ago

Domaine Grand Veneur Clos de Sixte Lirac Red Rhone Blend 2016

Rojo oscuro y lágrima muy densa.Frutos rojos y negros en nariz. En boca suave con taninos equilibrados. Un pequeño amargor al final que desaparece al rato de estar aireado. Buen vino para empezar con los franceses que he comprado.
