Green apples, bee pollen, yellow plums and tomatoes, hay, sweat, barnyard funk and gasoline. A deep and expansive flavor with a satisfyingly salty finish. Love this wine- it’s a trip. — 7 years ago

Oaky Syrah with leather on the nose. A bit too much tannin to my palate. — 10 years ago

Probably the fruitiest wine I've had. Smooth and delicious! — 11 years ago
Very interesting flavor and strong too. — 11 years ago
Ermahgerd, this wonder is SO yummy! We're drinking the 2012 in 2018. The nose is totally reminiscent of blackberry pie! This wine is smooth and easy to drink. My only complaint is that it has 16.6% abv, which makes it hard to appreciate more than a glass (especially if it's your second of the evening). Definitely drink this wine now if you have a bottle stashed away. Cheers! — 7 years ago

Petit Verdot, cot e carmenare, uvas bem equilibradas na acidez e taninos. Sugiro tomar entre 8 e 12 anos, estará no seu auge. — 8 years ago

Great mencia. Lots of dark fruit, smooth and fresh — 10 years ago
Nice find @Andrew Yandell! Started out soft with dark fruits and garrigue accents, then its bones started to show - mineral, nice build, and more complexity. Balanced and delicious from the first drop to the last. — 10 years ago
Me encanta este vino, sincero, puro mencía y a buen precio. Bodega de Raúl Pérez, no hay más que decir. — 10 years ago
2012 La Vizcaina - El Rapolao from Raúl Perez. An incredible wine; black pepper, incredible freshness, beautiful lift, almost dancing on the nose. The body is all elegance and freshness, while at the same time feeling plush. Very fine grained tannins. A balanced work of art. — 11 years ago
To me, this is an unknown superstar. Very nice to meet you, Mr. Perez Pascuas. Dusty, horsey, still full of dark fruit. Exceptional length and focus, this is one of Spains' lesser known treasures, in the same league with Pingus and Unico. — 11 years ago

Funky blackberries, loved it with smoked lamb — 7 years ago
Vinho delicioso, com toques de fruta e amadeirado tb.
Recomendo! — 7 years ago
From the days where Raul Perez still made a 100% pinot noir. In the more recent years of this wine he always uses Mencia in a blend with Pinot. Only 526 bottles made and one of the very few Pinot Noirs from Spain. This is nice but is slightly sharper + has more acidity then Burgundy pinots. Nevertheless a great discovery. — 8 years ago

I would love to retaste these Charles Perez Bergerie wines. They pack a serious punch of blood, bacon fat, olive, and red fruit. — 7 years ago
