Wow! Wonderful GSM - light but structured and complex. Spice that satisfies the palate but doesn’t overwhelm the food. Agree with all of the Somme’s reviews below - sub this for a Pinot anyway! *note to self for wine shop, BUY AGAIN! — 3 years ago

Après ski winner. Also note Advil in the background - blizzard ski trip recovery necessity — 3 years ago

Lemon & grapefruit nose, body fairly full and complex, kissed by oak with nice minerality melded with pear & lemon. Reminds me of L’Arrivet Haut Brion, a definite keeper on-the-list — 3 years ago

What an awesome rioja from out grad year - and it practically took us back to Logrono to boot. Paired with spicy (as well as some super-traditional) gambas al ajillo, and stood up well to both. I would say legitimately one of the better wines I’ve had in a long time, if not ever. Would absolutely recommend, esp. if you have a more French cote du Rhône or Oregon pinot palate. — 3 years ago
