Bodegas y Vinedos Ponce
Pino Manchuela Bobal
No notes- higher end Unicorn Spanish varietal. Think Mencia more in Ribera Sacra mood. Pretty good.

Sep 24th, 2019Bobal is a Spanish variety usually grown for inexpensive wines, but biodynamic producer Ponce take it more seriously. Raspberries, bramble, smoke, and anise, slightly carbonic, with drying tannins. Quite Spanish, but fresh and original. Drunk and enjoyed greatly with chicken and pumpkin sauce.

Mar 15th, 2014Earthy, quinine, on the nose. A bit of a delayed punch, very ripe peaches, bitter greens. Might have drank it too young.

Nov 1st, 2020My first Bobal! So earthy! Soil and tobacco. Faint dark cherry fruit. Some rubber on the nose. Unique.

Jun 22nd, 2017Medium bodied, dark fruit, velvety, dry. Opens up with a bit more dried raisiny notes and leather aroma. Easy to drink and paired well with Spanish tapas
