Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple of hours. The 2020 “Pétalos” pours a deep purple color with a magenta rim and an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with ripe and tart black fruits: blackberries, black cherry, salmiakki, horse blanket, and mixed earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium. A crazy, ambitious wine that’s the result of assembling over 300 plots. Between Raúl Perez and Palacios, Mencia doesn’t get much better. Drink now through 2030. — 9 days ago

Raúl Perez is just a beast, this is again one of his family vineyard wines, it is a very elegant, burgundy sort of wine with a great fruity nose of cherries and raspberries with a nice wet stone undertone, taste very elegant and smooth with a great saltiness and a still strong acidity, little young and needs some air as well, beautiful wine if you like this elegant type of wines — 3 years ago

BIG citrus, tropical nose with some pleasant mustiness( Cognac)underneath. Very Palomino. Banana, Mango.
P: Round, no sharp edges, lush. Banana, citrus, no wood. Meyer lemon. Deliciousness.
@Delectable Wine This is the A Contraluz from Raul Moreno 2021.
Thanks@ Enramistas

70% of the must is aged in old chestnut ‘bota’ from Oloroso. 34 arrobas (700 litres) and the other 30% in a Cognac barrel. Reductive aging where the barrels are religiously filled once a week. week. Bâtonnage is not applied and reductive aging of the lees is sought. The wine is only racked once and for bottling. Seeking therefore to keep carbon dioxide in solution and do not add sulphur during aging. — 2 years ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90 minutes. The 2022 pours, a bright magenta color with a transparent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of fresh strawberry, watermelon, kiwi, gravelly earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with low tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium. This is a deliciously quaffable Rosado and yet has enough complexity and “je ne sais quoi” to grab one’s attention. Drink now and over the next handful of years. Uncle Raúl is a master. — 10 months ago

2021. We really enjoyed one of his Godellos with oysters before, so when we got a delivery from Massachusetts today, it was an easy choice. This wine is rich with salty green apple flavors, and nice acidity. We all loved the pairing. — a year ago
