Cooperative Winery Of Nemea
L'Olivera
Vallisbona 89 Costers del Segre Chardonnay-Macabeo Blend
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. — 13 years ago
Cave des Vignerons de Castelmaure
Castelmaure Corbières Grenache Blend 2013
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. — 12 years ago
Vinícola del Priorat
Ònix Clàssic Priorat Cariñena Garnacha
Garnacha y Carignan. It's made by a cooperative of local producers, and the price is very interesting: €8,50 at the wine shop. Very good. #DWCC — 13 years ago

Francis Huicq
Deeply coloured wine. Very nice and elegant after one day of airing. Rich, plummy with fresh damsons fruit. A hint of smoke, zan and crushed stones. Full, ripe with fine tannins. The finish is tight, smooth and fresh. One to try with "Boeuf mode"! — 11 years ago
