A discovery! A fine version of good old Listán Negro from the Canaries. A 20% of an unknown San Francisco to me. On the wine side. Spices, in a restrained nose, lemmon, white pepper, a note of cinnamon. Medium/light bodied, rose petals, red, spicy, with fine length, remarkable acidity. — a month ago
A great white wine, big, yet balanced, with Rioja tipicity on the Viura, a smart use of oak and an ample acidity. Candlewax, Lemmon, dry peaches, the almond in the finish. — a month ago
Good moment of consumption for this 2018. The 15% didn’t hurt. Ample red and dark fruit, full bodied and fine tannins. — 2 months ago
