Love Rías with its peculiar white flower, citrus, and salinity character. This example is a staple; DO textbook… cheers. — 19 days ago

Twenty one year old red Rhône blend from Monterey County, 56% Syrah, 32% Grenache, 7% Carignane, 3% Petite Syrah, and 2% Alicante Bouchet. Pale ruby. Red currant, plum, black cherry, pepper, game and dusty tobacco on the nose. The palate starts out weaker and less complex than the nose but calibrates after a couple of hours. It is dry, with medium acidity, dialed down alcohol, medium tannins, medium body, pronounced flavours of red fruits, plum and spice, some dark chocolate, a peculiar short earthy gamy finish. I would love to try this with Texas Style Brisket. — a year ago

Rich, mature, nutty, floral and citrusy. Mandarin, mango, lemon oil, lots of peppery spice, resin, wet rocks, pine kernels and cheese.
True, it’s a peculiar mixture, but it works!
This is great to drink now, the sooner the better, in your garden, some roasted almonds and some old goatcheese within reach.

Vintage 2014 | beautiful Pinot noir expression with loads of cherries and spicyness, mainly laurel | paired very well with rabbit and coquille Saint Jacques and lentils, peculiar combination but really: heaven! | at Monarh Tilburg — 4 months ago

Finally! Trying the revered Montes Purple Angel for the first time. Can’t stress this enough: must, must, decant or aerate in order to suppress the green bell pepper note, especially on this young vintage. After that, the wine is pretty decadent with notes of dark fruit, chocolate, a peculiar cedar note, and a slight balancing herbal tone. The finish is lengthy, structured with round and persist tannins. Cheers. — a year ago

Aroma muito bom. A cor indica maturidade do vinho, embora com 3 anos. O sabor é peculiar e lembra muito o de vinho do Porto, mas sem o doce. Sente-se um pouco do tatino, mas não tem muito rastro. É um vinho diferente. — 3 years ago

Tainted nose. Mushroomey.
In the palate much better. Creamy and complex.
Still..: no score.

After a few hours, the murky, peculiar aromas in the nose blew off and the bouquet became wonderfully fresh and pure.
So…, next bottle: give it several hours of decanter time! — a year ago

@Delectable Wine the wine is 65% guarnaccia and rest split between malvasia bianca, moscato, riesling and traminer
Pircoca is the dialectal word for peach, actually the local variety i should say
It goes without saying the wine smells and tastes of peach, it's almondy, it has a citrussy apple too
But peculiar is its mineral side, quite metallic and salty. Not completely dry, but quite in balance with the mineral, you sort of can't feel the sweetness
It plays a song with not to many loud notes, but in the end it is interesting and queffable
Winery to explore on the Calabrian side of the Mount Pollino that dates back to 1727, it needs a visit — 2 years ago

Very peculiar wine typical of Cote du Jura from Chardonnay and Savagnin grapes. Yellow straw color with amber undertone, it is quite complex both on the nose and the palate. Smell of walnut and quince and spices the taste is full with balanced acidity. Really loved it. — 2 years ago
