White Blend from Alavesa, La Rioja
Mostly Viura with a splash of Malvasia and Palomino in the blend. Chalky acid with a little phenolic grip. Perfumed with jasmine nectar and grapefruit notes., Maple syrup, tea and a pinch of baking spices. A fascinating drink. Excellent acid profile over a mid-weight frame. A little oxidative handling offers nutty and toasty pops whilst the wine remains fresh. An energising approach, quite different to the super oxidative Viuras. A ripping incarnation.The 2022 Finca de Los Locos is s
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
Palomino from Jerez de la Frontera, Anadlucía
Caberrubia is Bodegas Luis Pérez's answer to NV Grand Cru Champagne! 'Caberrubia' is the name of a local bird which has returned to these vineyards since they were converted to organics. All natural alcohol. It's saline, iodine, balsamic, deeply chalky, deeply savoury, rich with balancing bitterness. Drinking it is like skiing down an intermediate slope, deep and winding but not too rushed, there's heaps of time to explore the chalk and every delicate switch and fold of texture and flavour.
White Blend from Swartland, South Africa
The 2024 Skerpioen is the Chenin Blanc Palomino blend on limestone soils next to the coast, this year's fruit picked early. "The wine was much fuller than I thought and one of the best wines we have made from the site," according to Sadie. The Chenin part speaks louder than the Palomino at the moment, sea spray and shucked oyster shells unfolding on the nose. The palate is fresh and vibrant, very saline in style, certainly very marine influenced with Palomino finally finding its voice on the f
White Blend from Swartland, South Africa
“Twiswind - "to argue with the wind" in Afrikaans - is the maiden release of a brilliant field blend from a 1.4-hectare site planted as recently as 2019. Featuring a medley of Chenin Banc, Cinsault Blanc, Clairette, Grenache Blanc, Grillo, Marsanne, Palomino, Picpoul, Semillon and Vermentino, it's like a who's who of the Mediterranean, with lime, greengage, grapefruit, quinine and juniper flavours, thrilling acidity and a mineral core. 2027-32.” Tim Atkin MW, 95 Points
Palomino from Jerez de la Frontera, Anadlucía
This isn't your grandmother's Sherry.Made in the style of bygone regional traditions, the De La Riva Vino de Pasto is an non-fortified aromatic table wine made with Palomino from the El Notario plot in pago Macharnudo.

White Blend from Swartland, South Africa
“The 2022 starts by almost playing hide-and-seek; the wine is more reserved and holding back. And only after warming up and a couple of minutes in the glass does the conversation start. The aromas are that of green apple and citrus flint, and then some of the stone fruit aromas begin to shine through. The wine needs time. The palate is already balanced, and the acidity is met by very firm tannins. The aftertaste is lingering. This bottling is a great vintage to follow the 2021. It is a strong
