Barcelona Mediterranean Wine

Château Musar

Bekaa Valley Red Blend 2000

Beautiful wine. So earthy, leathery, and powerful. This wine still has years of life left. A nearly perfect Cabernet Sauvignon blend with a Mediterranean twist. It tastes like an extremely high-end Chateauneuf-du-Pape dominated by a high-end Napa Cabernet. Perfect with my Greek lamb chops. I wish I could have left it open longer but I consumed it at my favorite BYOB Greek restaurant. If you find this wine at a reasonable price, buy it. At $90 a steal. — 2 months ago

Sicus

Sicus Xarel.lo Vermell 2013

I bought 7 Spanish wines at a good bottle shop in Barcelona. My written notes were put through the wash unfortunately so this is from memory. This Cava was a mid yellow/amber in colour with low bubbles. Oxidative notes on nose and palate. Quite acceptable. — 2 years ago

Mediterranean Red Blend 2021

#KosherWineSunday

Purple in color with a wide reddish/ purple rim.

Sweet nose with red fruits, spices, light oak and chocolates.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with blueberries, currants, plums, cherries, light oak, dark coffee, pencil lead, earth, tobacco leaf, herbs, light vegetables and peppercorn.

Spicy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a very young red blend from Israel. Easy drinking right out of the bottle, and a nice sipping wine.

Fruit forward and interesting. Feels like a Cotes du Rhône red.

Would be nice to revisit it in a couple of years.

I paired it with cheeses, nuts and fresh berries.

A very unique blend of Caladoc, Carignan, Argaman, Grenache, Petit Verdot and Syrah. Aged for 8 months. Kosher and not Mevushal.

14% alcohol by volume.

89 points.

$30.

with Chichi at Los Caracoles in Barcelona. Great Rioja with dried red fruits on palate; long finish; full bodied. Tertiary flavours like leather, tobacco and some smokiness develop after decanting for a while. Paired with grilled chicken; white tuna tomato salad; smoked sardine; fish soup for lunch. SO DAMN GOOD — 2 years ago

Aromatic, with bold fruit flavors. Still bright and crisp, making it a great pair for grilled meats and summertime Mediterranean dishes. — 3 years ago
