Bucher Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022

Ruby color, purple edges, with pronounced aromas of red fruits, floral, herbs and complex spice. On the palate concentrated flavors of raspberry, ripe plum and black cherry with orange rind, tea, herbs, cacao and oak, soft tannins on well balanced structure. Full body, rich long finish, ending with fruit, cacao, floral, spice and oaky tones. Very Nice! Will age a long time, actually very young now! — 19 days ago

Viña Gravonia Crianza Rioja Viura 2012

This is a favourite & we picked up a few bottles to see how age changes it. This is our last bottle and age has done it well.

Time has made it weightier. The wine is real dry & has a bit of a walnut flavour. In its depths, you can tease out a hint of sweetness.

We need to find more.

It sings to me too… just the price of admission has radically altered over the years!@Vin d’Ottawa

I am surprised that you did not rate this higher. I have an older version - they tend to get oxidized - hence the Walnut - there are folks who hate that - but i think it is different and brilliant!

@Peter Sultan it is pricier these days.
@Pinotman /// Andreas for me this is a special wine

There is still more time to build complexity on this gorgeous wine. I'm drinking my bottles too quickly, but it's hard not to when it's this good! — 8 days ago
