As Sortes from Rafael Palacios is 100% Godello from 50-70 years old vines. This is minerally, fresh but also complex with great length. For an 8 year old white wine this is quite spectacular. — 11 days ago

A charming wine from a very good producer. Blend of Carignan, Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah. Concentrated and bitterly herbaceous upon opening. Thyme and sage, cherries, hibiscus, licorice, and orange peel. Whew, a mouthful!
Update: 4 hours later this wine is calm and harmonious.

Wow! Notes of mushroom and chestnut, rich and oaky, medium body, paired surprisingly well with a lobster ceviche. — 2 years ago

Delicious. Oak on the nose but not as much on the palate. Red fruits. Spice on the finish. Would definitely buy again. — 5 years ago

Very nice white. Always enjoy it and decided to buy a few to have on hand. Crisp and delicious with real salinity and depth. Bit of confectionary quality. — 2 months ago

A lot going on here, and it's good. Smells like cola and chocolate. Tastes like milk chocolate, plums, medjool dates, brown sugar? Dry, tannic, puckery finish, but with lower acidity. Delicious, and a meal into itself.

This is supposedly 97% Garnacha, not Tempranillo. Wonderfully smooth and flavorful. Best Christmas wine so far. Started with $10 Don David, and now up to this for $20. Tonight a big jump to $60 CDP! — 6 years ago
