This wine has a medium lemon hue with refreshing and zesty notes of lemon peel, grapefruit pith, and kumquat, alongside juicy peach, nectarine, yellow apple, chamomile, white blossom, chervil, saline, and wet stone characteristics.
It carries a relative richness lending balance to the fresh primary and mineral notes with a fuller mouthfeel.
This wine is made exclusively from the Godello variety hailing from northwest Spain’s Bierzo appellation in the Castilla Y Leon region.
It was produced by Raul Perez, an acclaimed, small-batch winemaker whose practices have built a beautiful platform upon which the fruit and terroir may express themselves to the fullest and purest extent.
A delightful pairing with pan-seared halibut with roasted broccolini. Cheers!

“Northwest style sour ale, ale aged in wine and port barrels in grapes”. 20 month aging on Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. Brownish red in color, muddy looking. Funky red wine notes in nose, slight foam ring on fringe. Citric and tartaric sourness, cherry skin flavors, Malt like body, mouthfeel. Not for everyone but well made, really nice for a sour ale. Should cross over well to red wine drinkers. Oak and tobacco are apt descriptors that others used here, but there’s so much going on here. — 5 years ago
2020 vintage from Northwest Spain’s Galacia region, with moderate tannin before resting, think Merlot. Balanced. Tart cherry, blackberry, some sort of stone on the end. Really nice. Pleasant mouth filling tartness on the finish and dryness, but after the bottle is open a for a bit it’s less dry. — a year ago
Last ‘17 in cellar! In the heart of the Chianti lies Estate of Sette Ponti, 15 miles northwest of the city of Arezzo, past village of San Giustino Valdarno. Has 10% Merlot, aged in French Allier barriques, deep Ruby with red fruit aromas and floral notes. On the palate blackberry, plum and cherry flavors with blossom notes, spice and fine integrated tannins. Good balance, long finish ending with some oak and mineral tones. Nice! Will age a bit more! Tasting well now! — 3 years ago
