Le Gardeta Finca de Villatuera Syrah 2019

100% Spanish Syrah. Bright ruby/violet color. Aromas of black fruit with an intense floral (violet) note as well as a bit of Spanish garrigue. Flavors of black berry/cherry/currants/plum fruit, (both fresh and dried) dark chocolate, woody herbs and noticeable black pepper spice. Distinct menthol, mineral and spicy oak notes on the long lasting and very earthy/smoky finish. Slightly chewy tannins and incredibly complex. Bright well balanced acidity. Definite cool climate vibe here. Quite good. Part of Ron B’s Navarra Party! — 3 days ago

Coleccion 125 Rosado 2006

It's not everyday that I drink a 15 years old rosé. That is also in a good shape with potential to age for more years. Old school style, complex and interesting bouquet of caramel, marzipan, apricot, blood orange and fig with some cooked notes. In a blind tasting (sniffing?) I would assume that it has some relation to Madeira wine, but then you taste it and it's bone dry and not fortified. And the acidity is high. Overall, I love this wine and it was a cherry on a cake. — 5 years ago
