Funky mixed berry. Brambly, some hints of green pepper, black pepper, black tea, and good structure. Off the beaten path. Fun find. — 4 months ago
A sweeter style than some of the other houses and for me the sugar overpowers it a little - masks some of the exciting nutty fun going on after nearly 30 years in the bottle. I see other reviewers complain of a lack of acidity in other vintages, that’s interesting as this one is very present. The tannins have died. Would be curious to see if the flattening of sugars and acidity bring this into balance in another 50ish… — 8 months ago
Only red we had paired w Basque tapas & what a pairing. It’s a blend from Outside Madrid- syrah, garnacha, carinena & morenillo , it all hangs together in a loose, fresh style. Not too far removed from a Cru Beaujo. Dark red fruits, surprisingly long & a bit of grip. A ‘ villages level’ from the Spanish version of the Gang of Four. An easy wine easy to like. — 3 years ago
As organic as it gets … Pure fruity homemade goodness with high tannins and acidity with a long sweet smooth finish . A faint touch of sizzle. it needs to breath a bit. Serve 15/17 C … Great find. Honest wine …It does taste like guilty kisses. — 4 years ago
Citrus, white floral notes, white stoned fruit, and some ripe green apple to round it out. Complex with a richness at its core and clean minerality. — 4 months ago

Fun, bright, acid bomb, gets tarter as it opens. Unfiltered, but clean-ish funk! — 2 years ago
Delicious wine from the canary islands! Acidic, funky, interesting, I swear I can taste the sea air. Bought in the Hobart book village, had with shrimp scampi and clams. — 4 years ago

A tapestry of luscious dried fruit: figs, apricots, raisins, and prunes, all wrapped up in a soft yet very thick velvety mouthfeel. There are hints of cloves, caramel and even tobacco on that linger on the pállate. Well worth waiting for 58 years!! — 5 years ago
Second time with this bottling and an equally stellar experience. This producer works magic with her rosados. Flat out some of the best I’ve ever had. Deep ruby red, with strawberry fruit and a crushed candy nose. Mouth is tart, salty, taffy textured, leesy, with an umami wave. All the savory components integrate seemlessly with the fruit. Super length. What a great wine. — 6 years ago
