Deep purple with wide lavender edges. Intriguing nose of red cherries, black cherries, toasted oak, and dried herbs going on. This is a bit of a hard one to put a finger on. Certainly not an old school Tempranillo, nothing austere here but also not a strictly Americanized, homogeneous bottle either. A bit tight initially but soon blossoms into something very nice. Plenty of coffee, spice, and smoked tobacco on the palate. Dark fruit, oak, and menthol, also. Middle to long finish with even more pleasant spice. — 6 years ago

Good Crianza and I'll get it again. — 7 years ago
At five years old this was a very nice Crianza Rioja that had aged perfectly. Nice balance and smooth. Pleasant nose and drinkable on its own but complements Spanish food, especially paella, very well. — 3 years ago
Wonderfully crisp and lively white. Great with fish and chicken — 4 years ago

Martinez
Unusual, unfortified Fino-style / Pálido wine from the north of Andalusia. Blend of Aris/Airén (40%), Palomino (30%) and Pedro Ximénez (30%) from organically farmed vineyards in Villaviciosa de Córdoba in Sierra Morena, in the north of Córdoba, quite far from Montilla-Moriles and Jerez (actually, this is northernmost sherry-style producer in Andalusia). Aged for 6 years in solera system under flor. Intense nose. Green olives, caramel, curry notes. Full-bodied, bolder than most Jerez Finos. Super savory, lots of umami. Long, salty finish. — 10 months ago
