Bodegas Lopez Mercier

Torre de Rejas La Mancha Tempranillo 2020

House wine at El Gaucho restaurant which is next to the Mexican restaurant (same ownership). El Gaucho is an Argentinian steakhouse. 14,95€ on the wine list. Second time trying this one. OK wine, pleasant but nothing special. Would order again. At Port Duquesa, Costa del Sol, Spain. — 3 years ago

Arabarte

Rioja Tempranillo

€13.9 on the restaurant wine list. The bottle doesn’t say Tempranillo but it is red. An OK inexpensive bottle of red wine. In Costa del Sol, Spain trying different restaurants and wines. — 3 years ago

Costa Mezzana

Il Sarone Red Blend 2017

Excelente Negroamaro.

Muito além do custo-benefício.

Frutoso, redondo e equilibrado.

Vai bem com massa.

Servir entre 16° e 18°.

Domaine du Grand Arc

Corbières En Sol Majeur 2007

I was surprised to see the ratings so low from others. This wine was gorgeous. Calling it a baby chateaunuf du pape would not do it justice. This can go toe to toe with the real thing. I bought this 10 years ago (thanks JR) and it got buried at the bottom of my cellar and I forgot about it. Glad I did! — 6 years ago

Really good, pure mineral driven style. Not the leesy juicy fruit style but more along the lines of Do Ferreiro. Delicious but not ideal for blinds. — 9 years ago

Castillo de Monjardín

Crianza Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2019

My bottle had some Tempranillo with the Cabernet and Merlot but that wasn’t offered as an option. 18,5€ on the Thai restaurant wine list. An OK wine but would try something else next time. Costa del Sol, Spain. — 3 years ago

Cantina Valle Tritana

Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 2020

At La Grappa, an Italian restaurant in San Pedro, Costa del Sol, Spain enjoying a break from Spanish wine. This was the house Italian selection for 16€. Would order again. — 3 years ago

Valdubón

Roble Ribera del Duero Tempranillo 2020

€24 on the restaurant wine list. This was the lowest price red wine on the list. Certainly not a Beckstoffer but pleasant enough with our dinners at the Costa del Sol, Spain. — 3 years ago

This was flat out delicious: squid ink, opaque dense looking and tasting w/gobs of black fruit: blackberry, cherry & plum. baked quality to the fruit. Hints of Earth and a minerally Iodine but by & large fruit focused. Infinitely smooth & caressing - went down (dangerously) easy as we had to do a double take at the empty decanter! .2 bump for QPR! — 6 years ago

Villa Dugo Friuli Isonzo Merlot 2020

My bottle isn’t a match but it is a Merlot Venezia Giulia…oh well…house wine at Parapiro’s Ristorante at Port Duquesa, Costa del Sol, Spain. Second visit, same wine both times. Didn’t have internet last time so I couldn’t log it in. — 3 years ago

Finca La Melonera

La Encina Inglés Ronda Garnacha-Syrah Blend 2021

€16 on the restaurant wine list. This is from a winery in hills of Costa del Sol, town of Ronda. A blend but not sure of the varietals but some Cabernet Sauvignon, Garnacha, & Tintilla de Rota, which are grapes of the local area. I suspect the grapes may change with the vintage. Enjoyed! We need to visit this wine region of Spain. — 3 years ago

Cline Cellars

Ancient Vines Contra Costa County Zinfandel 2018

Online reviews for this Zin are 91-93. They also say Ancient Vines Zinfandel shows spicy, bright strawberry, with coffee and chocolate characters. Ripe fruit and soft tannins make this a mouth-coating rich vintage. And I agree. Like most reds, it has to breathe for 30-40 minutes. Hard to do. — 6 years ago
