Gonzalez Byass
Tio Pepe 'Fino En Rama' Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Palomino Fino
Saca de Primavera from 04/17 with the new golden bottle design. Fabulous notes of sea salt, apples and olives on the nose. Lots of body and depth in mouth, extremely dry and tangy and some surprising nuttiness. One of the best finos I've had. Only 4-5 years under flor but wow, it's got it all, extremely smooth drinking and still great after 2 days with even more tang. Club Gourmet at El Corte Ingles in Spain has it for 15 euros, snap it up! Fantastic value for money. — 9 years ago

Ceja
Bella Flor Sonoma County Syrah Rosé 2019
Stopping by Ceja Vineyards for a tasting of five of their wines. @cejavineyards
Ceja is a Mexican-American family owned winery producing wines from both Napa and Sonoma valleys. “In one generation the Ceja family has gone from immigrant vineyard workers to grape growers and winery owners.” 💪
I loved learning about the inspiring background of this winery and family devotion to excellence. 💕💕
The wines are designed to be paired with food (especially, though not exclusively, traditional Mexican cuisine), but are delicious on their own, too.
Like this first wine - the 2018 Chardonnay “Reserve” from Carneros, Napa Valley - is smooth, creamy and delicious. It was 💯 barrel fermented and aged sur lie. It has ripe papaya, tart pineapple, passion fruit, ripe pear, melon, vanilla and crème brûlée notes. It’s positively gulpable. 🙌🙌
Also, the 2019 Bella Flor, Rosé of Syrah (highlight), from Sonoma Coast offers a bouquet of florals, raspberry, orange peel, and strawberry notes. Perfect poolside sipper ☀️ It was whole cluster pressed and barrel fermented aged sur lie for 7 months adding richness and complexity.
The 2018 Pinot Noir from Sonoma Coast was fermented in an open top, small vat, cold soaked with gentle punch downs. It has cherry preserves, strawberry, raspberry, rhubarb, also some cherry blossom, pepper, sage, cola, vanilla and clove. 👃 👄 — 5 years ago

When the weather is in the 80s, an aquatic happy hour is in order!
We’re excited to try this rosé, made primarily from the Tibouren grape, coming from the Côtes de Provence AOC of France.
Clos Cibonne has been in the loving hands of the Roux family since 1793. Due to the hard work and dedication of this family, the vineyard from which this wine comes was among the 18 designated “Cru Classés” in the Côtes de Provence 1950 classification, an indication of its quality. You may attribute Tibouren’s inclusion in the list of legally-permissible varieties in the Côtes de Provence AOC to the Roux family, as well.
This rosé is 90% Tibouren and 10% Grenache. It was made by direct press, giving it a paler hue, fermented in stainless steel, and aged biologically for 12 months in large, 100-year-old oak foudres under a thin layer of yeast (known as a “fleurette”), a process similar to that used to create Fino Sherry in Spain (where the “fleurette” is called the “flor”).
The result is a crisp, elegant expression with delicate lemon, gooseberry, white peach, chamomile, blanched almond, and clay notes. It also has a savory element that I’m having a hard time putting my finger on, perhaps it’s soft white cheese, along with great structure and texture.
