Viña Gravonia Crianza Rioja Viura 2011

Would like to spend more time with one of these. Many Riesling use cases fly through the mind. Lees in clear focus. — 19 days ago

Bollinger

Special Cuvée Brut Champagne Blend

In 1829, Champagne Bollinger introduced an instantly recognizable, dry, toasty style that has been coveted ever since. Six generations of the Bollinger family have maintained that trademark style, and still owned and managed by the same family since it was founded. Gold color with a nose of fruit and baking spices. On the palate apple and peach, toasty notes with great bubble flow. Long crisp finish ending with yeasty mineral tones. Nice! — 18 days ago

Marqués de Riscal

Reserva Herederos del Marques de Riscal Rioja Tempranillo 2019

For $19, a bargain. Robust all around but balanced. Long finish. Earthy. Dark and inky. Rich blackberry. Buy again. Better than other $30-40 riojas w more age. — 19 days ago

E. Guigal

La Turque Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2013

Tasting the 2013 La Las this was the weakest of the three. A good wine but not great and lacking in wow factor. Probably too young but more bla bla than la la at the moment. — 5 days ago

Clean red, paler on rim.

Spices and red berries on the mouth, long lasting flavour.
Quite nice wine.

E. Guigal

La Mouline Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2013

The best of the three Guigal wines at the moment. Juniper and bay leaf dominated the palate in this wine that seemed more integrated and developed than the other two. Went well with venison. — 5 days ago
