Zacapa

Gran Reserva Ron Zacapa Ron Centenario Sistema Solera 23 Rum

Probably my favourite rum - it’s from Guatemala. They use virgin sugar cane honey - the first pressing of the sugar cane, unlike most rums which use molasses. As I’ve mentioned in previous notes on Delectable, aromas of burnt caramel, tar and molasses. Aged in a Solera system at 2300 metres above sea level. Firstly in American Oak Barrels then in charred American Oak barrels, then in barrels that previously aged Sherry and finally in barrels that previously aged Pedro Ximinez. Very smooth and dangerously drinkable. — 9 months ago

Flor de Cana

Centenario 18 Slow Aged Single Estate Rum

Consistent notes from February 2019. Molasses Caramel etc and ultra smooth. A top quality rum from Nicaragua. Great minerality from all the old lava flows in that country where the sugar cane grows. 18 years old. — 5 years ago

Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2018

I agree with notes from @Ron R The bouquet just explodes out of the glass. On the palate, this is clean, crisp, and perfectly balanced. Just a wonderful chardonnay. — 5 years ago

Viñas Viejas Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

Hands down, my favorite Cabernet. Shockingly hard to believe, since it comes from Chile and not California or Europe but this was a surprise favorite. Wish I could find it more places! — 7 years ago

Albariza de Antehojuelas Palomino Centenario 2017

Whoa this actually smells like nutty banana dessert with salted caramel sauce!! So much ripe fruit through both nose and palate but without diminished acid... wow it’s actually so creamy it’s remarkable. Bit of grip in the top palate similar to walnut skin and a sharp steely mineral streak through the center.... odd odd wine but absolutely delicious. Curious about his this is vinified - would guess concrete with some new oak?? — 7 years ago
