Nice fruity Spanish wine had at book club dinner hosted at my house in May, from Sarah. — 5 years ago
Light body with a touch of acidity and kind of a woody flavor. A bit of sweetness too it as well. Not too intense, well balanced. Enjoyed it and would get again — 6 years ago
This was really interesting. Floral. On skins for a year is what I think I heard. But light in color. — 8 years ago

2015 vintage. Alentejo DOC. Aragonez, Trincadeiro and Alicante Bouschet. Needs time, decant or be patient. Dark chocolate, black cherries, ginja ( Portuguese sour cherry liqueur) and spices. Powerful and very spicy, not very refined, but it has a certain rustic charm. Should work well with beef or wild boar stew. Abv. 15%. — 3 years ago
I’d say medium to medium plus dryness. Exactly where I want it. Delicious smokiness on the nose, with a nice spice and good heat. I really like the balance of the wine and would definitely put it toward the top of my list — 6 years ago
Not your typical California or French Rose, but $14.00 on sale it works
Definitely will decant my 2nd bottling
Winery Notes,
Honorío Rubio is a Riojano white and rosé specialist. In a land best known for its incredibly age-worthy reds, among many die-hards out there it is undoubtedly the traditional whites which represent Rioja's finest and most original wines. We would add as well the barrel aged rosés, which are incredibly rare (Lopez de Heredia's has not been available for over 5 years, and we hear that they will finally have a little bit of the next release, 2008, in 2018!) Honorío makes an absolutely killer rosé, from some of his oldest Viura and Garnacha, briefly macerated and co-fermented, then aged 16 months in used barrels (which previously held his Lias Finas white wine). An inimitable, rich and bright, incredibly food friendly style of rosé. — 6 years ago
One to save. Too tired to be fancy with describing it. — 7 years ago
