Lived up to its 92 point rating by Decanter. Won gold medal at 2019 Concours des Grand Vins in France. Change up from our new world Napa wines. Enjoyable smooth red as we celebrated the holidays with family in the Sierras! — 3 months ago

Wine is a deep orange. Intense baking spices on the nose and in the flavor profile, with dried fruits. Loads of acidity but also a depth and roundness and mineral finish. — 4 years ago

This 2017 Cairanne by Camille Cayran won the Concours des Vins Gold Medal in 2018 and I can see why. Power structure and fruit all together and drinking well now. 15% ABV but does not feel that hot. Held since release in 2019. — 9 months ago

I’m not focused on sweet liquorous wines, but I had a lot of pleasure with this pretty almost four-year-old bottle. The evolutionary notes add depth and relief to notes evoked by other comments (peach, apricot, bitter orange, honey, nutmeg) a magnificent wine tasting.

Moi qui ne suis pas porté sur les vins doux liquoreux, j’ai ici trouvé beaucoup de plaisir avec un joli flacon quasi quadragénaire. Les notes d’évolution apportent de la profondeur et beaucoup de relief sur des notes évoquées par les autres commentaires (pèche, abricot, orange amer, miel, noix de muscade) un magnifique vin de dégustation. — 4 years ago

The 2023 Ot de Vins el Cep is a tasty, cosmopolitan red that blends Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah from Penedès. Expressive fruit-forward aromas include cherry, sour cherry and blood orange. Dry and grippy on the palate, it flows with gentle, mildly juicy textures. $14.00 (Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, October 2024) — 5 months ago

Blurred color of unfiltered wines. Sparkling mouth, even gaseous. Nice freshness. Rich aromas, typical of low-interventionist wines: cider, citrus fruits, apricots, nuts, almonds. We are on a cuvée that clearly puts the crunch of the fruit in the spotlight, with a concentration that tends towards meat aromas on the finish!! Refreshing and very digestible. Great flexibility. Served at 10-12 degrees it is a superb happy hour treat. Not the complexity of a great wine but a crazy charm and great drinkability. 🇬🇷

Nez trouble des vins non filtrés. Bouche perlante, voir gazeuse. Belle fraîcheur. Arômes riches typique des vins peu interventionnistes: cidrés, abricot, noix, fumé. On est sur une cuvée qui met clairement le croquant du fruit à l’honneur. Rafraîchissant et très digeste. Grande souplesse. Servi à 12 degrés c’est une superbe gourmandise d’apéro. Pas la complexité d’un grand vin mais un charme fou et une grande buvabilité.🇬🇷 — 3 years ago
