Viña Tondonia Gran Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2008

Shockingly fresh, focused and loads of structure. Maybe Tempranillo isn’t so bad. 😊 — 21 days ago

Gran Reserva 904 Rioja Tempranillo Graciano 2005

An extremely well-cellared bottle with pristine cork. Deep, complex, full-bodied and tasting like it still has many good years. Notes of black cherry, currant, leather and spice. Comparable to the best left bank Bordeaux. — 9 days ago

Viña Gravonia Crianza Rioja Viura 2011

Vintage 2011 | stinky smell, high bitters, flint, tight and stiff. I like the character. Need to taste more Rioja whites to be able to recognize if tasted blind. — 24 days ago

It’s an atypical & extremely old school version of Rioja White, one of my favorites actually of all time. Not to everyone’s taste because of its oxidized character but curious as to the tight & stiff qualities, given that seems unusual. CUNE makes a Rioja white with a small dosage of sherry that’s fantastic@Peter van den Besselaar

Clos de la Coulée de Serrant Savennières Chenin Blanc 2021

No notes but what a memory: some wines leave their mark by their fruit but this was by its exquisite minerality. So pure and complex simultaneously—& at only 3 years of bottle age, only the tip of the iceberg! — 24 days ago

Viña Bosconia Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2008

Wanted to test a bottle. Took a full 24 hrs to reach drinkability. At that point, delicious and more nuanced than expected. — 6 days ago
