Had the 2021 in April of 2024. Really tasty with the marinara and Italian sausage but didn’t seem to maintain that tastiness as the meal went on. I always eat my salad after dinner and it did not pair well at all with that. Fruity aroma with some big tannins and a dry finish. Hints of cherry and had a medium body. Loved it at the beginning-not sure by the end. — 14 days ago
Not a typical Pinot Grigio. Some definite peach and melon. Slightly sweet on the palate due to the fruits. Really enjoyed this one but was definitely not a typical Pinot Grigio like I usually drink. Would buy again for summer sipping in the deck. — 4 days ago
Loved this one. Great for a rainy cold day. Paired with mujadara and Jerusalem mix chicken. Big wine with blackberry, dark cherry and blueberry. Oaky tannins keep it from being too sweet. Would buy this again in a heartbeat!! — 7 days ago
Had the 2020 in April of 2024. Made some albondigas and patatas bravas. Paired well with the hints of smoke from the paprika. Hints of fruit and tannins but nothing was in your face. Tasted great with the chorizo and manchego too, but as a sipper alone, wasn’t anything special. — 5 days ago
Had the 2021 in April of 2024. Not a bad little cab for the price point. Slightly sweet overtones with some tannin backbone. Cherry and blackberry with hint of tannins. Medium bodied. Nice for the price point. — 7 days ago
Had the 2021 in April of 2024. What a fun wine. New grape for us. Lighter wine with a hint of orange sweetness. Paired well with pork souvlaki but not so much with the lemon rice. Would definitely buy again. — 13 days ago
Had the 2019 in April of 2024. Really enjoyed this. Dry but red cherry softens the dryness. Earthy with light tannins. Great buy for the price. Plan to get this one again. Had with chicken and mushroom risotto and paired remarkably well. — 17 days ago

This was the Rioja Alavesa from Aspaldi. Super tannic with a musty bouquet. Aeration didn’t help the mustiness but helped smooth out the astringency that this wine had way too much of. Some tart blackberry and a hint of cedar/leather. Not a very good wine at all. Would never buy again. — 3 days ago
