Las Jaras Wines
Descendientes de José Palacios
Las Lamas Corullon Bierzo Mencía 2016
Visst är den ganska dyr, men klart den bästa Mencian jag druckit. Mörka bär, rosblad, clementiner, anis och söt kryddighet. Otroligt följdsam men med stabilt eftertryck och längd. Som en riktigt lyxig Côte de Nuits fast för (i jämförelse) ynka 899kr. Fynd. — 14 days ago

Reserva Las Mulas Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

Château Léoville-Las Cases
Grand Vin de Leoville du Marquis de las Cases Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 1982
This is still somewhat burly & youthful with black & red fruits, cassis, leather, mocha, tobacco & graphite. — 14 days ago

San Gregorio
Las Martas Single Vineyards Calatayud Garnacha 2016
Crazy dark purple tinged color. Lovely in the glass. Smells Spanish. Hint of warm wood (cedar?) to go with the cherry-berry stuff. Maybe a hint of sage. Flavor is classic. Mountain wild berries. Bitter inky tannins. Freshness. Crisp. Very dry. Reminds me of Evodia a bit. Plenty of anise and licorice on the backside. It’s a lovely example of granacha’s expression in Spain.. — 22 days ago
Olivier Rivière
Las Viñas de Eusebio Rioja Tempranillo 2014
Up north near Basque region (north of Haro). Winemaker is from Burgundy and brought refined approach to Tempranillo . Reminds me of very high end Bobal (La Estrecha, one from fav SF wine shop). Medium + body and smooth soft palate. Ripe red fruit and as with all things Basque food... delicious and can’t wait to have more.
Had in Santa Barbara with Laura at Spanish restaurant — 3 days ago

Las Brisas Vineyard Pinot Noir 2016
Exquisite. Elegant. Light. No pennies. — 10 days ago
Bodegas Tajinaste
Paisaje de las Islas Forastera Blanca 2018
My exploration of Canarian wines #4
From Tenerife.
Pale in color and quite restrained with shy apple and apricot and a whiff of herbs. On the palate bone dry with good depth, a rocky, salty personality and purity. The apricots play second fiddle. Good length and very food friendly. — 19 days ago
Laura Dambuleff
very light and subtle if not a bit boring. definitely not the best las jaras but nothing offensive here. — 2 months ago
