We'll see if Delectable can figure out the name of this wine - I had to create it on CellarTracker. Made by a social interest cooperative in Costers del Segre, just west of Barcelona, this blend of Cava grapes (Chardonnay + Macabeo) is focused and beautiful. A swirling array of flavours, largely not fruit-based -- talcum, buttered popcorn, rubber, varnish, baked pear, cinnamon, mineral, celery -- yes, I swear, all in the same wine -- then scorching straight-line acidity on the back end of the palate that carries the wine through into a long, herbal-tinged finish. Somehow takes an intense approach to a fairly neutral set of flavours. Stunning. — 12 years ago
A solid and deep Corbieres from the small and unique cooperative of Castelmaure. Earthy, herby with scents of warm bush, thyme and dry leaves. Dried figs and spices complete the picture and add character. Full-bodied, rich and deep on the palate with fine and ripe tannins. medium acidity. A wine for food. — 11 years ago
