Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90min. The 2016 Reserva pours a deep purple with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with fabulous notes of ripe and dried, black and red cherries, Fig Newtons, dill, toasted coconut, leather, anise, old wood, dry earth and spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again, Hermanos de Peciña Reserva is one of the great wine values in the world. Drink now through 2046. — 9 days ago

The Syrah definitely shows up. Adds some weight and a little olive tapenade. seemed to have a little new oak. — 6 years ago

As a coffee lover, I like this beer. A lot of coffee flavor matches the stout taste. — 6 years ago

Very tasty. Sweet roses, vanilla, baked bread, and very ripe red fruit. I’d drink this daily...as long as it pairs well to food. I’m curious how this will develop with age. — 6 years ago

Toasted bread, brown bread crust, grape candy, and a leafy, herbal hop character.

Lots of toasty, bready notes with cherry/grape Jolly Rancher and an underlying metallic mineral note from the lager yeast.

Great project for SN pairing up with a different German brewer each year to come up with this. Nice to have a fresh example of this style. — 7 years ago

This Rioja blend needs to be open a long time before consuming. Once it settles down, it is a great wine. So complex and rich. Definite fruity Grenache notes mix with deep Tempranillo. A great wine. — 4 years ago

Not many beers brewed like this anymore. Literally pine trees in a forest with a hint of maple syrup. I get some citrus and raw ginger, but then that sweetness cutting through followed by bitters. The bitterness is so huge but balanced. This is a beer to experience rather than slug. — 6 years ago
