La Revelía Godello 2021
@delectable this is their La Revelia. Please add.
Nice. Pleasant. From the northwest region of Spain where summers are hot and they crush a lot of seafood.
A little thicker and creamier than the more common Albariño. Both are fresh & finish with nice minerality.

El Zarzal Godello 2021
Godello is described as a being like a cross of chardonnay, albarino, and riesling. Those grapes have little in common but they are all among my favs. But my first sniff of this wine confirms, yes, I see it. Aromas of citrus and flowers laced with petrol and vanilla. The finish has the immediately lightness of albarino but then grows heavy like a fine chardonnay. — 4 months ago

Right behind the second one we tried, nice cranberry tartness and semi-dry. Very refreshing summer one! — 4 months ago

Don Próspero – Tannat 2017
Canelones, Uruguay 🇺🇾
Overview:
Made from Uruguay’s flagship grape, this 100% Tannat hails from the Canelones region, the country’s viticultural heartland. It captures the bold, structured, and unapologetically powerful style that has put Uruguay on the wine map.
Aromas & Flavors:
Dark fruit at its core, black plum, blackberry, and cassis, wrapped in notes of cedar, baking spice, and a touch of earth. After hours in the decanter, it remained tight yet expressive, with hints of licorice and savory herbs peeking through.
Mouthfeel:
Full-bodied with gripping, chewy tannins and firm dryness. The structure dominates, yet there’s depth and intensity that suggests longevity. Still evolving in the glass.
Food Pairings:
Perfect with rich and fatty dishes that tame its tannins, think grilled ribeye, lamb shanks, or slow-braised short ribs. Also works with aged Manchego or blue cheese.
Verdict:
A serious, food-demanding Tannat that showcases Uruguay’s bold personality. Not a casual sipper, but for the right pairing it becomes absolutely delicious. With its muscle and backbone, this vintage still has 5–8 years of cellaring potential ahead. Cheers!
Did You Know?
Uruguay is the only country where Tannat is the national grape, brought over by Basque settlers in the 19th century. Canelones, just north of Montevideo, produces nearly two-thirds of Uruguay’s wine and is known for its Atlantic breezes, which help balance Tannat’s tannic intensity with freshness. — 10 days ago
