Imperial Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2019

9.2

Punchy crowpleaser: heavy, almost syrupy body with strong, bold flavors of oaky vanilla, ripe black cherry, and cinnamon spice. Smooth and round mouthfeel. Not terribly complex but a joy to drink. — 5 months ago

Real de Asúa Crianza Tempranillo Blend

100% Tempranillo crafted by Asúa Winery located in the town of Haro, La Rioja, Spain, an area known for its unique clay soils rich in calcium and iron. This particular winery focuses on small batch production runs to ensure each bottle receives the care and attention in the vineyards and the cellar.
The wine is aged for 14 months in French oak barrels, it has an amazing purple in hue. On the nose has some decent reductive aromas featuring plums and blackberry with a noticeable oaky layer. On the mouth the supple tannins and juicy on the fruit-forward complements the elongated finish.
A wine style that never disappoints and give you a tremendous run for the money!

Monopole Clasico Blanco Seco Viura 2016

Finished in Sherry casks. Very cool savory element to this. Salty minerality and green apple. Very unique but reminds me somewhat of dry Alsace Riesling — 5 years ago

AA Bruant Cava Xarello 2021

Killer Cava - basket of bread, sweet apples, fennel, mint, and berry aura hovering.

Bone dry with some bite and even though it dissipates, personality fills the spaces between the bubbles.

@Pinotman /// Andreas if you can be ok with less structure compared to Champagne it’s such a steal
