Mirador Iberico

Merry Edwards

Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc

Pale yellow color. Smells very citrusy and tropical, with a hint of some creaminess. On the first taste it was very bright, but had a richness on the finish. Definitely fruit forward, leans heavily towards tropical fruits like pineapple in the beginning. Has mineral/earthy notes towards the end. Very clean and dry. I really like this wine. Had it with spanish iberico ham, great combo. — 4 months ago

Bodegas La Horra

Corimbo Ribera del Duero Tempranillo 2015

Thought this was excellent, especially while in Barcelona. Very berry aromas with a bit of earthiness and spice. On the bud, dark berries of cherry and blueberry with a nice spice note. Smooth with a nice finish. Went great with our Griiled Octopus, sheep’s head cheese, grilled veggies, and table side cooked Iberico pork loin while in Barcelona! — 3 years ago

Tenuta di Gracciano della Seta

Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Sangiovese 2018

From the Sventoni/della Seta families estate with some 200 years of winemaking history; this Nobile is clear purplish ruby; dark fruits, some dried, coffee, nuts, salty herbs and some ’charkuts’; medium-everything for structural components and alcohol but mouthfilling and long on the finish. Not very complex but well made and good with our Beemster, Delice, and dried iberico filé. — 5 years ago

Clendenen Family Vineyards

Punta Exclamitiva Santa Maria Valley Nebbiolo 2010

After a few hours open: Looks like Nebbiolo. Menthol on the nose and some peppery spice, pencil shavings a bit. Tart red fruit and serious umami meatiness like iberico ham. Tannins aren’t overpowering, but haven’t had a younger bottle so I guess its the age? I want more of this. — 6 years ago

Bodegas Tradición

30 Years VORS Oloroso Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Palomino Fino

Incredibly complex 30 year Oloroso from Bodegas Tradicion. Bought this after a great tour and tasting at Tradicion. It’s definitely the best sherry I’ve ever tasted. Dried and apricots, burnt orange, bitter orange peel, toasted hazelnuts, caramelized brown sugar sea salt and chocolate with a beautiful acidity and drive on the palette. Would pair this with jamon iberico, toasted nuts, and a nice salty cheese. Just stunning. — 7 years ago

Rene Rostaing

Côte Blonde Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2004

This was a real treat after the Gentaz-Dervieux since Rene Rostaing is Marius Gentaz’s son-in-law. While the vineyards that belonged to Marius are now famously part of the Rostaing domaine, that vineyard goes to Rene’s Côte Brune; this is his Côte Blonde and arguably his most famous bottling. This 2004 pours a cloudy ruby with brambles, purple flowers, blood, dust and leather. Slightly rustic which is what I want from Rostaing. I love the individuality and how it paired with the Iberico pork cheek, mushroom ragu with lavender and thyme. Plenty of life left. Drink through 2034+. — 2 years ago

Yarra Yering

Dry Red N°1 Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2016

Wow…
Prominent aromas of bitter cherries (amaro), crème de cassis and dark chocolate upon opening. Aeration reveals subtle hints of cough drops, potpourri, porcini and beefstew.
Still a baby (I’ll let my batch of 2017s slumber for 5 - 8 years), but certainly a beautiful one.

Served next to Iberico sirloin, lentils, almondcrumble and drops of Madeira.

Bodegas Protos

Crianza Ribera del Duero Tempranillo 2015

I bought this wine in Toledo during my UCL trip in Spain because I saw many restaurants in Seville, Toledo, & Madrid have this wine in menu and on display.

Dark & fresh ruby red color with very nice aromas of red cherry and cool herbs on the nose. Full-bodied together with savory flavors of ripe & fresh red cherry, vanilla-mocha, and spicy tobacco on the palate. Conplex & strong structure, nice & solid tannins, and reasonable length on the finish. Perfect wine to pair with iberico & cheese.
