Bierzo Mencía 2008

Birthday bottle with Balkan take away from Ambar DC.
Shows why this is still an underrated variety. Both dense, dark and plummy on one hand and a bit leafy/herbal and mineral on the other. It seems to meet somewhere in the Eastern Atlantic between Castilla y Leon and Bordeaux.

Mencia is so good. Producers can make it super light or heavy and tannic. Either way, I enjoy drinking it.

In a pretty perfect drinking window. I had this with a homemade paella and shared it with a new work friend. Polished, seamless, balanced, elegant. What a wine and vintage combo this was. Wish I had more bottles. — a month ago

Bodegas y Viñedos Vega Sicilia

Ribera del Duero Valbuena 3° Tempranillo Blend

Tasted blind. Ruby reddish color, young-looking compared to other reds so far. Opaque. Notes of black fruit, mocha, some earth and a little bit of wood. Rich in the mouth. Given our earlier Rioja bottle, we go back to Spain with guesses. I guessed 90 Unico. This is the Valbueno blend, with grapes from 85/91/96. 94+ — a month ago

Bodegas y Viñedos de la Marquesa

Valserrano Gran Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2016

Enough tannins to cleanse the palate and mature enough for a smooth finish. The nose is pleasant and the mouthfeel velvety. — a month ago
