ask the wine guy for something unusual, something off the beaten path and he recommends this delicious dry 100% Palomino w/some bottle age: definitely a food wine, light greenish straw color w/fairly austere nose full of minerals, lanolin, herbaceous musk, white flowers (jasmine), ginger & some spices. on palate it is rigid & angular, zesty acidity, some citrus but mostly minerals & herbs, quinine, screams for briny foods - we had this w/deli section fare & salad. — 8 months ago

Nice refreshing bouquet of lemon zest and lime pith and fresh white peach with some minerally notes of pebbles and saline, and light oaky notes of cedar and pine. On the palate lemon, peach, and golden plum with notes of saline and hints of tangy white pepper with a subtle creaminess to the finish when it’s warmed up a bit. Very nice value from Portugal — 3 years ago
Pale straw color. In the nose exotic fruits. On the palate aroma bomb with high acidity but overall really good balance. Amazing wine. 14€ in Catania — 4 years ago
Muted nose with some white flowers, light honey, fresh & quite cool.
On the palate with some weight (Encruzado influence?), a touch creamy, with some underripe white peach, white tea, a hint of bitter almond with a salty tang towards the mineral finish.
Not overly complex or too sophisticated,
but drinking nicely. — 5 years ago
Reminiscent of orange marmalade with almonds, hints of cinnamon and raisin; boozy. Cheaper bottle of port, but potential for a couple years of aging, I’d guess. — 5 years ago
Light & crisp from Tacaron on 10/21/25. Blend of Portuguese grapes. — 8 months ago
Wet rocks and some herbal/floral aromas that also come through on the palate with almonds and some salinity. Some citrus acidity but it's toned down from when we first had the wine. Bought at the L'Etoile Iberian Wine Dinner 8/4/22, don't know how it got lost on the shelf for 3 years! — 9 months ago

Nerello- och Cappuccio Mascalese tillsammans med lokala druvan Nocera från DOC:n Faro, nordöstra spetsen av Sicilien. 17 var varm årgång, men den här har en sval härlig karaktär. Syrliga bär, chark, peppar, körsbärskärna, småcitrus, rosor i många delikata smaklager. Små fina tannin och elektricitet i avslutet. Så god något sval. — 5 years ago
