Potent yellow colour. Rich, almost Chardonnay like despite being a mix of roussanne-Grenache blanc-Viognier, and string body. I really like this one. 4/2-2023 (home) — 2 years ago
2022/5/31-6/1 with ayu karaage, hachiku several ways, niku-dofu, etc. This is my favorite of the lower-priced Léa reds - there’s really nice acidity and flesh, and enough age to be fully open with hints of complexity but still with vibrant fruit. Really good on day 2 as well. — 2 years ago
Deep ruby coloration. No translucency. On the nose, minerality, sweet tobacco, anise, and blackberry. On the palate, strong minerality, jammy dark berry and anise, full bodied, long finish. Tannins are still strong but balanced. — 3 months ago
Fantastico vino de Guadiana, enraizado en campos encumbrados desde el gran asentamiento romano, en Alange, precioso lugar camino de Emerita Augusta. Cuna de mis antepasados. Buen caldo, apropiado para carnes, queso que marida de manera fanstastica. Una gran joya de mi amigo Tomas. — 2 years ago

Super dark and rich. Enjoyed it with steak but definitely better for deep winter / rich meats. Also: 15% ABV! — 3 months ago
Already developed into drinking window. Sometimes you have these wines that do not tip the high rating scales, not overly complex, layered or standout elements. No, this is just really well balanced and giving a lot of pleasure and easy drinking.
Funny fact: This cuvee name means badger in Occitan, a wink at the animal who eats Jean-Francois' grapes.. 🦡 — 6 months ago
