La Hoya De Mazuela

Bodegas Borsao

Cabriola Grenache Blend 2018

Blend of Garnacha (55%), Syrah (39%) and Mazuelo (6%). Dark ruby color with garnet highlights. Aromas of wet soil, coffee, violets and ripe red fruit. Flavors of strawberry, raspberry and red cherry fruit, dark chocolate, minerals and baking spices. Bit of vanilla on the long and pleasant finish. Soft/tight tannins and vibrant (a bit overbearing) acidity that causes the mouth to salivate. Medium-plus body and structure. Needs aeration. — 6 months ago

Tendral

Selección Garnacha Blend 2018

Blend of Garnacha and Mazuela (Carignan). Dark ruby color. Fresh dark berries and plums on the nose. Pallet is more red fruit based (raspberry, red plum and red currents). Note of beef jerky and iodine on the long and consistent finish. Quite juicy and bright but the rustic minerality balances this wine nicely. — 3 years ago

Reserva Edicion Limitada Rioja Tempranillo 2014

Wonderful depth— needs 30-40 mins of air to open and integrate. Then beautiful balance and huge drive. Wish could get more! — 5 years ago

Bodega Azpillaga Urarte

Vina El Pago Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2017

Really nice. On first few sips it reminded me of a spicy, more tannic Beaujolais, but with air developed much more tobacco, cedar box, some dust, dried cherries, and a big bunch of herbs. Need to drink more of this. — 6 years ago

Hoya Finca Hoya de Santa Ana Monastrell Blend 2020

On first opening, bouquet of black cherry and blackberries, Big Red cinnamon gum, bell pepper, and smoky bowling alley; palate of black cherry and plum, char, and black tea with a medium-short finish. On the second day the candy and bell pepper smells taper, bowling alley becomes more of a whiff of pipe smoke, blackberry bramble emerges with spent firecrackers; on the palate the black pepper spice has some herbs de provence, black tea tannins are rounder and the cherry flavor more tart, a fuller body on the finish with notes of char, meat fats, and pepperoni spices. Was gonna go with 89 but it’s impressive once you decant for a day. — 4 years ago
