This 2012 #carinena blend Reserva is wonderful. It does open up after almost an hour but is fruit-forward with a touch of the regional Spanish bell pepper notes. I agree with another reviewer, it does pair well with pizza. — 9 years ago

We waited over 5 years to try this wine and finally thanks to a super sweet gift from my bro in law we savoured it to end 2016 over a lovely fondue dinner. Terrified it would not be worth the ~100$ it costs ...our fears were quickly subdued in the first sip! Well worth the wait. Will seek this out again for a special treat. Happy New Year's 2017!! — 10 years ago

A delightful red. Easy to sip and the perfect amount of sweetness if you want something that’s not dry but won’t give you a horrible hangover if you drink a little too much. Highly recommend! — 3 years ago

Threw a ton of sediment. A lighter colored zin- not a big alcoholic fruit bomb. This has finesse and character. Some minerally component. This is the tailback, not the tackle. Loved it. Thanks bro. — 6 years ago

‘Cool castle bro’ label. Deep red color. Smells like old books, dry cherries and unsweetened chocolate nibs. Flavors are strange with gun-smoke tea, fancy tonic water and berry pies. Plenty dry. Chewy. Complex. Winey, like a Winesap apple. It’s not raisin-y. It could have more depth and bite perhaps, but overall it’s very enjoyable. — 6 years ago

Delectable lists this as a Nebbiolo, but I think it’s a blend. It’s as honest a basic dinner wine as you can get. Flowers, earth, macerated dark cherry. Savory in the mouth, with earthy, clingy flavors, framed by good tannic and acid structure. Bottle given to me by my bro, who remembers me bringing various 1960s and 1970s Vallana wines to family dinners in the old days. — 7 years ago

13'Peter Micheal Belle Cote Chardonnay @Martin G Rivard You're always taking such good care of me, even on vacation. The balance of this wine & the quality of this fruit👍. Talk about a winery that has even taking it up a notch in the last 10 years. Martin- Thanks again for sending me such great gifts. Love you bro. Edit - 2 years this will be drinking even better. — 9 years ago
