It tastes like Jessica Rabbits shitbox, I’m hiding a semi in an open plan restaurant. THANKS Dirupi for your tremendous wine, it’s really helped my social anxiety! — 10 months ago

Lovely nuts and mild red fruit. Hints of anise and filberts. Light, lovely, well developed. Nice, subtler match for an over the top boeuf Bourguignon (carrots, mushrooms, cippolini, cognac, olé). Ty Fass Selections for a super value. — 5 years ago

What’s that you see on the label? Well, of course, it’s the outline of Spain’s most ferocious animal, El Toro! Although this version of manzanilla is not the cleanest you’ll find it still whisks you back to traversing the sunflower laden highways of Andalucía with nothing but a chilled bottle of this wonderfully dry sherry, some dry cured ham, a loaf of crusty bread and some pungent queso cabrales. Olé, my fellow oenophiles, close your eyes and imagine your back in the land of Fería and Sevillanas. — 4 years ago

Straight from the nose, beautiful spanish music starts playing. Red and black fruit balance the tannins and you find yourself willing to play the castagnettes. This 2005 Dominio de Atauta is at its peak. Just perfect! Fruit, tobacco, and leather blend together beautifully. Olé! — 6 years ago
