La Maldición Malvar de la olla de Marc Isart
Madrid, Spain
50 day laceration but tastes like 5-7, really sharp and sprightly and even sour. Vanilla tree and oak and dogwood on the nose, that umami quality of low ph maceration. Not too sweet lychee, honeyed mead vibe, with a touch of baked apple pie. Really complex, and from Madrid of all places!

Very funky nose, crisp and light bitter apple on the palate. The oxidation doesn't carry thru to the mouth, which makes it actually really drinkable and interesting.

Amber in color, this newly-arrived 2014 vintage is the "orangest" iteration of this wine I've had so far. The nose is not intense, but it does begin to show interesting aromas of baked apple, apple cider, and lanolin after some air time. Savory, with more baked apple/pear flavors, and with good balance of acidity, alcohol, and a touch of tannin. Very good with food, in fact, this would work well with beef skewers (that's right) marinated with a bit of olive oil, salt, Fino or Manzanilla, and garlic, then grilled, with either black pepper or red pepper flakes sprinkled over before serving.
