La Rioja Alta 904 Gran Reserva Selección Especial 2015
Thrilled to be able to offer my thoughts on this special wine. Lunch with the full current release set from La Rioja Alta was thrilling. The wines are a demonstration of respect for the past and judicious use of modern technology combined with an approach that offer a style reminiscent of a refreshed classic. No fads here!Exceptional depth and length, wonderful core of vibrant red fruit flowing through with great persistence. Building the secondary proportion of flavours to fruit over the A

Dominio de Pingus 'Flor de Pingus' 2021

Dominio de Pingus ‘Flor de Pingus’ 2021

Red Blend | Spain, Castilla y León

The 2021 Flor de Pingus is a village wine from La Horra, made with small vinifications by plot and then a blending exercise, so it’s the wine they feel is most their style. They look for texture, looking for a delicate and elegant wine. The nose is very subtle and harmonious, super clean and with a lot of focus. There are no traces of oak on the nose.The profile of the wine is more in line with 2018 or 2016 than with 2015 or 2019. This has a velvety texture, an elegant mouthfeel and so

The single-vineyard red 2021 Camino de Ribas comes from a plot, La Cóncova, under the Toloño peak close to Rivas de Tereso, a hamlet from San Vicente de la Sonsierra, possibly the coolest zone, with a north-facing exposure, a place with shallow soils with sand, limestone and sandstone and full of aromatic herbs. It's a blend of 50% Tempranillo, 40% Garnacha and the rest Viura, Jaen, Garnacha Blanca, Palomino and other white varieties. It fermented with a long and soft vinification with some wh

Manuel Antonio de la Riva 'La Riva' Vino de Pasto Pago Macharnudo Palaminio 2021
The first iteration of this wine I drank was the 2018, a seriously impressive wine. It wasn't your grandmother's Sherry and nor is the 2021.Made in the style of bygone regional traditions, the De La Riva Vino de Pasto is a non-fortified aromatic table wine made with Palomino from the El Notario plot in pago Macharnudo. It's personality is influenced by a period of time in lightly ullaged barrel under florLuis Guitiérrez comments that from 2019 Willy and Ramiro have tried to reduce the e

Àlvaro Palacios 'Finca Dolfi' 2021

Àlvaro Palacios ‘Finca Dolfi’ 2021

Garnacha | Spain, Catalunya

I had the pleasure of devouring the 2016 about 18 months ago over an aged scotch fillet with a friend. A wine of presence and importance. Along with the other Priorats I've had from Àlvaro it's clear he's got it right in both the vineyard and the winery. After all, to make a wine like the legendary L'Ermita you need mad skills!Even just after landing in the country when wines are a little out of sorts from shipping across the world, the perfume builds in the glass with all the trademark

Garnatxa | Spain, Catalunya

Fresh energetic, fragrant fruit. The blend plays well giving a long even palate. Excellent slatey long fine tannins. That play between red and blue fruit with, savoury, earthy layers and a little subtle oak playing at the edges.. A beautfiul perfume with exceptional acid that marries the fruit and tannins perfectly.

Roda 'I' Blue Note Tempranillo Riserva 2009
If 2008 felt cool and Atlantic, the 2009 Roda I could be described as Mediterranean, from a warm and healthy vintage. Here they aim for black fruit character while the regular Roda should show red fruit. The grapes are sourced from over 30-year-old vines and is mostly Tempranillo with some 5% Graciano. It matured in first and second use French oak barrels for 16 months. It's a warm vintage, without reaching the heights of 2011, but there was some stress in the peak of the summer, which in some w

Incredible! Toasty development shows on opening quickly making way for an energetic perfume as the wine opens beautifully freshening and building energy. Excellent length and depth. Quite delicious, wonderful chalky, phenolic, texture graced by a cleansing bitter line. The mousse is complete and seamless. Subtle cereal character akin to a great Vino di Pasto. The core of flavour has a transparency and delicacy complexed by fresh green and woody.  Such is the importance of this gastronomic wine

R. López de Heredia Viña Tondonia Gran Reserva 2001
The 2001 Viña Tondonia Gran Reserva is the follow-up of the 1995. There is a sense of harmony and elegance, of nuance and subtleness that wasn't quite the same in the Bosconia, as comparing both wines is inevitable. They started picking the red grapes the 15th of October, and the last grapes were picked the 29th of October with good weather. The grapes ripened properly and thoroughly, and the wine has great balance for a long aging in bottle. This is 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacho and 5% each Gr
