9.1

A wonderful mix of 40% Garganega, 20% Trebbiano Toscano, 20% Incrocio Manzoni, 10% Cortese and a 10% mix of Chardonnay, Riesling and Malvasia. Quite a palate, where the majority Garganega makes it a true Veneto white, with melon, peach and great freshness and minerality. — 4 months ago

What a wonderful Priorat wine estate is Mas d’en Gil. Not only the red Priorat’s are superb, so is this Coma Alta white. Made of 100% Garnatxa Blanca (Grenache Blanc) and from a great vintage. The Coma Alta is not as complex as it’s bigger brother Coma Blanca, but offer lots of nuances still, in terms of ripe white fruit, a bit of wood and vanilla, and a bit of spice. Great length! — a month ago

Quite a unique Albariño, which is bottled 6 years after harvesting, and at its full potential after 8 years, but can be kept for 15-20 years. Almost like a GG Riesling, and tastes in the middle of a Burgundy and a GG Riesling in terms of complexity and length. There is freshness through some citrus, grapefruit and white flowers. Extraordinary wine! — a month ago

Caiarossa is located in Riparbella, mid-Tuscany, Province of Pisa. The closeness to the sea has given this mix of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Sangiovese and Alicante freshness, delicacy and elegance. Dark fruit flavoured, but not over the top. Excellent wine! — 4 months ago

A small production is this white from Fazeda Agricola Augalevada in Ribeiro-Galicia. The grapes are predominately Treixadura (80%) with a bit of Albarino and Godello. It was raised in amphorae, which gives this Ollos de Roque an additional effect. Biodynamic principles apply, so it’s just grapes and nature in a bottle. The wine is very balanced, lots of ripe white fruit, minerality and acidity. No sign of ‘tiredness’ in this 2014 vintage, after 7 years of bottleage. — a month ago

From 100-year-old pre-phylloxera vines comes this 100% Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) from Ribera del Duero. It is reasonably priced, yet delivers a silky smooth palate with seamless tannins. Abundant black cherries, followed by some herbs. Excellent wine! — 3 months ago
