Dos Valencia 2021

[40% Monastrell, 30% Cabernet Franc, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon] This Spanish rouge blend from Valencia is highly aromatic, floral, red fruits, nice acid balance, very nice depth but not at all heavy like I’d expect with the grapes in the cepage, lingering finish, lovely. — 20 days ago

Nice! I love Mourvèdre but am always skeptical of the ones from the southern part of Spain (Jumilla, Yecla, etc.) because they never quite seem in balance to my taste.

Casa Sosegada Monastrell 2021

[50% Monastrell, 25% Forcaila, 10% Arco, 10% Bonicaire, 5% Rojal] Wildflowers, herbes de Provence, quite exotic aromatically, lovely red and dark fruit flavors, very good balancing acidity which supplies nice freshness, the Monastrell provides a solid structure, longish finish, very nice Spanish red!! — 5 months ago

Rafael Valpolicella Classico Superiore Corvina Blend 2020

Clear, medium ruby to garnet in color; on the nose it's, clean with pronounced primary and secondary aromas of cherries, almond,and cloves; on the palate, it's dry with high acidity, medium tannins, medium alcohol, medium body, and pronounced primary and secondary flavors of tart cherry, ripe strawberry, tar, and black tea with a long finish. This wine is complex and intense. Overall, I rate this wine as very good. Nellie likes it too. — 17 days ago

La Forcallà de Antonia Forcallat 2022

Forcalla is similar to Pinot Noir but not as good. The nose is an amazing flowery bouquet. But the palette is thin and astringent. Neat to try a rare grape. — a month ago

Laberinto (Rafael Tirado)

Cenizas Pinot Noir 2024

More earthy aromas on the nose than fruit. Got some red cherry, cedar, maybe pepper, wet stone/soil. Really good just on its own without food, but pairing with Ribeye later. Medium low acid and tannin, keep it nice and balanced. — 14 days ago
