Gran Passione

El Enemigo

Gran Enemigo Gualtallary Cabernet Franc 2019

Dark ruby hue. Exquisite bouquet of fruit, with aromas of blueberry, pepper, plum, saline, vanilla. Plus body, with plus tannins and plus acid. Superbly balanced and elegant, with a lengthy, memorable finish. Tannins are already well-integrated, but this is something to drink on special occasions. 85% Cabernet Franc, 15% Malbec. — 10 days ago

Viña Real (CVNE)

Gran Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2007

18-. Very sophisticated wine. Smooth, deep, long. The epitome of serious Rioja. Not spectacular, but give me more. — a month ago

Bodegas Faustino

Gran Reserva Faustino I Rioja Tempranillo Blend

Excellent. Doit être bien aéré. Sec, bien généreux mais pas corsé. Un mélange de cèdre, prune, tabac, fruits rouges confits s, bien équilibré, aucune lourdeur. Les goûts sont plus doux que le Faustina V. Excellent avec un ragoût de veau marsala. SAQ $31 — 3 days ago

R. López de Heredia

Viña Tondonia Gran Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2011

A friend brought this wine to me, what a gift! A new favorite when it comes to red wine. The vibrant color was astonishing, and the red fruit notes were pleasant. Very rich & dry, yet smooth & balanced at the same time — 18 days ago

Ruffino

Riserva Ducale Oro Gran Selezione Chianti Classico Sangiovese 2018

Not a typical Chianti IMO and not sure if it was doing a blind tastes test I would ever guess Chianti. That being said it’s a super drinkable wine that like most wines, gets better as it sits. Enjoyable at the first sip and even more so at the last! This might be a good introduction to Chianti for first-timers. — 4 days ago
