Old School Spanish Blanco
So spectacular b/c it’s many flavors of fruit, herbs and minerality fade in/out with each sniff/sip. Complex & ephemeral
Not everyone likes the oxidative notes and savory elements
DAY1
Served with Vinloq System and immediate fireworks
👃Honey, wax, and herbs like dill etc
👅Citrus, pear, with nuttiness. Flavors are dynamic and varied
Stored in fridge under Vinloq Preservation
Forgot about it actually…
DAY24
Outstanding again
The leading flavors of lemon, honey with that nice nuttiness are there again. So is the prominent waxiness that shrouds those ghost-like flavors
No signs of deterioration as the fruit and intensity of the flavors are still there in spades

Have not had a young C/R in a long time. This was like seeing a two year old thoroughbred race horse and thinking sure he’s not going to win the Kentucky Derby but this is a very good horse.
Lots of all the good things; fruit, acid and tannin and most importantly minimal alcohol influence in a warm vintage . Very pure , one can drink now but you will be missing out on even greater enjoyment in the future. — 6 years ago

Reddish tawny and translucent. Thinner and brighter than the older Barolo next to it. Great C-R nose. Notes of granite stone, earth, black cherry, cranberry, a little bacon, blueberries and some old wood. Vibrant in the mouth. Still has young fruit impression, tannins are soft and acidity still gives some pucker. Great future ahead for bottles like this. — 7 years ago

A Memorial Day BBQ wine, this was fantastic especially considering its youth. White pepper, plum and cassis, decent acidity, great body and length. I love R-C mostly for their Pinot, but they make a couple Syrah cuvées that rock (Cherry Camp is the other). — 6 years ago
@Paul T- Huntington Beach i guess bottle 2,000 is a R-C Riesling. It is the last vintage of their Riesling. — 7 years ago

You’re only at 1,989 How can assume 11 bottles out?Excellent wine from C&R, lots of fruity notes and perfect acidity on the back end. — 7 years ago
Lacked some savory notes to its benefit. More Guigal than C-R. — a year ago
Received as a gift from R & C. Excellent taste. Very smooth. — 6 years ago
One of our favorites from VA. C R+ with some sediment; N fresh berry, raspberry, currant, woodsy; T same with added oak, mushroom. Smooth, mild tannins. — 6 years ago
Better than the 16, not as sweet.

$20.00 out the door doesn’t hurt either
