Palma Real

Rueda Verdejo/Viura Blend

Part 2 of grocery store adventures… lemon pith, hay, tart white peach, cantaloupe, orange blossom on the nose. On the palate lemonade and tangerine pith, white peach, hints of lemongrass and basil and a touch of saline with a nice viscous body and a medium finish. Impressive value for a budget buy from my neighborhood Giant. Probably would go well with seafood, salads, and light tangy cheeses (or faux-cheeses ;) ) — 3 years ago

One of the pleasures of your reviews is the short but always interesting history of the vineyard, company or person behind the wine and bottle.

9.0

He isn’t from the best neighborhood but he plays it all off so well. He is sweet but has a dark side that I like. He is so smooth and hits all the right places at the right time. — 8 years ago

Soplo

Valencia Garnacha

Delicious Spanish red. My friendly neighborhood wine merchant brought it to me as I was checking out and insisted I give it a try. Why not, I thought? It was only $11.

I was so surprised by the ripened red fruits and silky smooth finish. This is that perfect red to pair with foods which are usually paired with whites. Incredibly versatile and food friendly. Not near as heavy as our trusty cabs, but still with that red wine umph we all know and love.

Château Grand-Pontet

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Lunch 🥪

K&L notes as follows, Grand Pontet is an interesting property, positioned in the neighborhood of other stars of the appellation such as Châteaux Canon, Beau-Séjour-Bécot and Clos Fourtet. It is, however, a small estate, a mere 14 hectares, and its prices are much better than some of its more prestigious neighbors. In 1980 it was purchased by Gerard and Dominique Bécot, owners of the neighboring Beau-Séjour-Bécot. They have applied the same high standards to both Châteaux in their possession, and their winemaking team crafts Grand Pontet alongside the Beau-Séjour-Bécot wines. Recently purchased in 2021 by Domaines Clarence Dillon (Haut-Brion, La Mission Haut-Brion, et al.), the property was combined with and incorporated into Château Quintus. Full-bodied and luscious, this Grand Pontet is laden with ripe blackberry fruits, savory tobacco, licorice notes, and ripe, softened tannins. It’s seamless and bold, not shy. It’s going to require something decadent to pair with, such as filet mignon or some other black-tie dish with plenty of flavor and rich umami presence.

Anas-Cëtta Langhe Bianco Nascetta di Novello 2016

Lovely light melon notes, with balancing lemon pith. This is a slightly richer white grape than the other neighborhood white (Arneis), with no trailing bitter notes, but still not “tropical” in my book. It’s just good stuff, minimal oak, easy-drinking. Eataly Dallas — 5 years ago

Château Lafleur-Gazin

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2008

Château Lafleur-Gazin is situated between Château Lafleur and Château Gazin, and its immediate neighbor is Petrus - I bet that’s one hell of a neighborhood potluck. Currant, cocoa, fig, graphite, and cedar, with a bitter coffee streak that runs through it. — 8 years ago
