Mencia from Bierzo, Castilla y León
A lift in perfume. Build in overt whole bunch stalk and spice with a sappy nature. Lined up toward Grenache a little more. A delicacy with a finely weighted palate. Refreshing and thirst-quenching, it draws you in. The palate is much more complete than the nose at the moment. I expect the whole bunch nose to resolve over the coming year to deliver a special wine.Paul Kaan, Wine DecocdedCésar's 2023 El Rapolao was sourced from a centenary plot in the coldest part of the village, wher
Mencia from Bierzo, Castilla y León
Savoury, earthy, bolder, slightly richer iteration, admittedly starting from an elegant base across the range. Ripper more even tannin profiles still showing the whole bunch factor that will need time to settle. More expressive yet still needing a few years to settle. Raspberry liquorice. Layers of perfume. Paul Kaan, Wine DecocdedThe 2023 Pico Ferreira comes from a lieu-dit in the village of Corullón, a northwest-facing, shady slope planted with centenary vines on slate soils. It
Albariño from Val do Salnés, Rìas Baixas
The 2022 Leirana Finca Genoveva shows very complete, combining power and elegance, volume and length, roundness and freshness, with good ripeness, slightly higher alcohol (12.9%) and amazing freshness and acidity parameters (pH 3.12 and 8.08 grams of acidity). It should be long lived in bottle.Luis Gutiérrez, The Wine Advocate 96+ PointsExcellent! Long & fine with incredible mid-palate weight. Precise, saline & poised. A wine that will comfortable play with top end of 1er c
Red Blend from Ribeiras do Sil, Ribeira Sacra
Guímaro’s wines draw you in. At this level, they move well beyond and above the playful, juby, joven styles. Complex, savoury, layered with sophisticated tannins all of Guímaro's top wines show a deft hand in élévage to elicit the personality of the fruit from which they are made.There's a build in weight and richness here over the Miño river sibling to this wine.The San Pedro has a beautiful acid balance. Savoury salami, spiced, energy and freshness, super complex. Harmonise
Albariño from Val do Salnés, Rìas Baixas
The 2022 Goliardo A Telleira shows lots of finesse. They changed the élevage here to 1,500-litre foudre, which they think works better for Albariño than barrels, no matter how big they are, and this wine clearly shows it. It has the finesse of the sandy soils and a polished texture (a little more sleek, a bit à la Chenin) but still lively and with pungent flavors.Luis Gutiérrez, The Wine Advocate 95+ PointsMy Note on the 2021: Simply delicious. Ridiculous for the coin. Citrus oil
Albariño from Rìas Baixas, Galicia
This single parcel, Inxertal, is inland and a site that recently had to be blended away as the 100 year old 0.15ha site yields only around 600kg of grapes. Thankfully this year they were able to bottle it again and we can see where the intensity of low yielding inland fruit meets that soulful expression from Alberto and Silvia. Rich yellow peach and flinty minerality on the nose, tightly wrapped by that 400L barrel. The particular site has a honeysuckle and floral aroma that is persistent year o
With each step up through the range, the oak sophistication increases. Whilst clearly present in the Ardanza, it is much more sophisticated texturally. The 2019 Ardanza has a fresh line of acid. It's tight and quite vertical. Just starting to resolve. It still needs time to build expression and generosity. Saline with blue fuits. Linear shape and flow with excellent transparency. It's be intriguing to sit on a bottle over a couple of days and see where it ended up.Paul Kaan, Wine Decoded May
Albariño from Rìas Baixas, Galicia
Fascinating! Savoury licorice root and lanolin. Incredible intensity. So beautifully weighted, flowing & rich yet transparent. Beautifully integrated acid. Musk roses. Entrancing wine. Such presence yet delicacy. Very very good, such complexity and energy in the fruit.Paul Kaan, WINE DECODED Sept 2025The 2021 Fogar Do Castriño is a characterful and unusual Albariño that matured in a used chestnut barrel for 24 months and a further 15 months in bottle. The wine has a light golde
Albariño from Rìas Baixas, Galicia
The 2020 Fogar Do Castriño feels more civilized, matured in a used chestnut barrel, and the notes from the wood feel subtler than in the 2019 when they had to use a new barrel. After the good experience with A Graña, they went for a chestnut barrel that they feel marks less than the oak and respects more the character of the Albariño grape. This feels balanced and vibrant, with pungent acidity and marked flavors, citrus freshness and great length. This is one of the wines that shows the ver
Palomino from Jerez de la Frontera, Anadlucía
A Vino de Pasto from the laminated Albarizas Barajuelas of Pago Macharnudo. Willy Perez has turned out an absolutely ripping 'Escribana' in 2024. Willy clearly has epic touch eliciting balance, complexity, texture and freshness to give us an entrancing wine. In reference to flavour I typical refer to a core of fruit for most grape varieties and wines. Drinking Vino de Pasto, I prefer to refer to a core of flavour. The 2024 'Escribana' certainly has flavour to burn. Saline & nutty with gr
Red Blend from Alfaro, La Rioja
Complete liking this the shape, flow, development and harmony are impressive. Very complete super fine long tannins with personality. Excellent flavour profile with a little baking spice. Freshness and energy here, signing. Plush, fine and delicious.I was really taken by the 2020 Propiedad, a pale and bright ruby-colored wine with subtleness and elegance despite its 14.5% alcohol. The old vines are a majority of Garnacha and maybe 8% other varieties. The wine is floral, with notes of sto
Red Blend from Amandi, Ribeira Sacra
At 400-450 metres' altitude, Meixeman is a 1.2 hectare plot of very old organically grown vines from a 'two-faced' vineyard: the larger part is relatively coolly oriented slate facing south-east; the other is warmer iron-rich granitic soil facing south-west. This 'heritage vineyard' was replanted after phylloxera in 1907 by Pedro's grandmother, using remnants of the site's own genetics which survived the pestilence. The grapes are foot-trodden, 40% whole bunch, 16 days maceration on skins and st
