Quite yellow gold colour , wide light lemon rim. Shows quite a lot of development . Quite toasty with roasted nuts , candied citrus peel , candle wax , ginger , saffron, curry powder, sea breeze. On the palate this is structured and quite full bodied with the nutty character , ginger and candied lemon rind , great intensity and grip , salty , balanced acidity and very long and balanced on the finish . Drinking well now but needs time to open , will probably continue at this high level for another 5-10 years and maybe even improve further — a month ago

Silky, smooth, light and refreshing but with enough substance behind it to make it a good choice for the price. — 5 years ago

This is exceptional. Lemon oil and greenery. Integrated and slightly smoky. An oiliness in the palate, with a sweetness and intensity. Great freshness but a gorgeous complex mid palate. Great — a month ago

This was an exciting surprise! My first impression of the 2011 vintage and reminds me why I adore this wine so much. The nose displays oxidative notes that give it a sherry-like character. Lovely strawberry, watermelon, and porcini. From an intellectual standpoint, this was a really fun wine on its own but it becomes even more exciting with the introduction of food. Unlike, most rosado wines, there’s a good amount of structure with some pretty noticeable tannins. Definitely a rosado for heartier meals. Today, it was paired with a tarte flambée topped with octopus and salsa verde and while this modern spin on Flammekueche was delicious, I think this Rosado was a little overpowering for the pairing. A unique wine that is stylistically more like their Blanco…and unlike anything else you’ve likely ever tried. The closest thing I can think of would be Chateau Musar’s equally elusive Rosé…and even that one isn’t as left field as this. — 3 years ago

04 Rioja Blanco, "Gravonia" nice tangy, salinity, evolving in glass to a bitter, petrol, grapefruit pith, cashew nut roll out. Oak adds complexity, probably petrol odour — 10 years ago

Following on from the 2005 Blanco Reserva, the Tinto Reserva from the fabled 2001 vintage was in fact a little underwhelming, perhaps given lofty expectations and the exceptional white we’d just enjoyed. This was in a lovely spot, offering plenty of mellow enjoyment but not a great deal more. — 2 years ago

Shout out to @Ron R on this great bottle of Tequila. Had it mixed in our home margarita recipe and on a stand-alone basis. While this makes for a great mix the standalone shows a soft vanilla and caramel that finishes with a velvet smooth texture. — 5 years ago

Flagship wine from Quinta Milu, a tiny artisanal operation by young winemaker German R. Blanco. Unfiltered, fresher-style Tempranillo from some of the estate’s oldest vineyards (70-100+ years old) located at elevations of almost 900m in La Aguilera, one of the coolest, and most sought-after areas within the Ribera del Duero appellation. Smooth and balanced. Plums, dark cherry. Chocolate and mentol notes — 6 years ago
