Today it was announced that @raulperez is the best oenologist in the world. While this isn't one of his wines and quite frankly not his style, it is a fantastic #mencia from #bierzo and thanks to Raúl Bierzo and Mencia are on the world wine radar. Rich and sexy aromas, smooth and soft tannins. Long and elegant. Doesn't really seem like a Mencia, seems more like a Californian Cab Franc. — 9 years ago

2010. A rather serious Spanish (!) pinot noir. Quite nice, low alcohol, but the pyrazines bug me. The rest is very good; floral, black tea on the nose, typical pinot; blind I wouldn't situate it in Spain. Taste is balanced and fresh, tannins like black tea. But those pyrazines... — 11 years ago

Ohh Raúl Pérez increíble wine — 9 years ago
No es una sorpresa porque si es un #vino de Raúl Pérez no debería ser raro tomar algo de tanta calidad. Tuve la suerte de tomar dos añadas diferentes en dos días de la misma semana la 2012 y la 2010. La cata la hice del 12 pero el 10 esta aun mejor. Visual es un vino de intensidad alta. Nariz es un juego de tiempo y paciencia primeros olores de compota de ciruelas, arándanos, aparecen las especies y al paso de los minutos reconocí la pimienta verde, cardamomo. En boca de entrada tiene un volumen denso, con una acidez fresca , redonda , sus taninos un poco integrados y finos , largo en boca y persistente frescor en boca. Rico muy rico😀 #bierzo #mencia #wine #winelover #spain #somm #winemaker #wines #wineporn #redwine #winetasting #winestagram #sommelier #buenavida — 10 years ago

Very nice, too young right now but will age nicely. Good fruit bodes well. It's too bad Lufthansa screwed me over and I had to ditch a bottle at the airport in Bilbao. Thanks assholes. — 9 years ago

This is the 2007 Raúl Pérez Prieto Picudo. Fantastic wine. Let it breathe for at least 2 hours to bring out a rich, full-bodied, dark wine. Nose is blueberries and white pepper. Palate is surprisingly bright with fine, rustic tannins. This is a very food-friendly with. Finish is very long. The combination of rich texture and bright acidity is a bit unusual and intriguing. — 10 years ago

Liquid rock in white. Taut and extreme. Not lovely yet, but could get there. Bottles not vintage dated. A great wine but didn’t show its full potential. — 7 years ago
