Medium ruby; medium intensity aromas of dark fruit, blackberry, black plum, black cherry, vinyl, underbrush, cedar, baking spices; dry, medium plus acid, medium ripe tannins, high alcohol, full body, medium plus intensity flavors consistent with aromas; medium plus finish, very well balanced and well integrated, a big wine but not overwhelming — 5 years ago

Posthumously review, it was great — 8 years ago
Delicious medium to fully bodied rosat sparkler with earthy notes from Boutique Cava producer, this one is surely intense and more food wine than aperitif, hand turned and disgorged after 36 months on the lees, delectable info is misleading as this is 70% monastrell, 20% Pinot, and 10% garnaba. Don't compare Cava to champagne, it's Catalayun native varietals that bring their own skill sets to the table. — 9 years ago
Coconut, Banana, White flowers on the nose. (With air, lots of herbs),A faint touch of the mineral quality that follows through on the finish of the palate. Said palate is less floral and more linear, mineral, especially after some airing in the glass. The bitterness that feels mineral is a nice contrast to perceived fruit, as it adds an interesting aftertaste. Viura, Grenache Blanc, and Tempranillo Blanco. Interesting blend.
I’ve had Tempranillo Blanco as a standalone, but only as of ‘25,in San Sebastián where in one Pintxo bar, it worked quite well with parts of their menu.
This winery is a wife & husband team who, from what I gather, hope to bring some “traditional” Riojan winemaking style to modern production.
I’m looking forward to trying their offerings beyond entry level.

Juicy and light! — 5 years ago
It's a beautiful wine. Deep and intense. The tannins are strong so it needs a long decantation (2 hours). The nose is very fruity: a blackcurrant, a plum with some sweet liqueur. Then the palate with a chocolate and a leather. The composition is perfect. More fruit, more earthy notes and it would be perfect. — 6 years ago
Catalan goodness @Utku Can would like!

Great wine combining southern burgundy richness, use of luxurious oak, great acidity and low alc levels. Wonder how this ages.. Tx @Jan A for pointing this one out!. — 7 months ago
Wonderful single vineyard Garnacha that has luscious red fruit and spice on the palette. Remarkably smooth and integrated for such a young wine. — 7 months ago

It’s amazing that this grape can produce wines with so much freshness and juicy fruit, completely balanced, zippy acidity in an area That’s very close to the Mediterranean and dry when we think of this kind of style of wine only coming from the northwest of Spain and in reality it all depends on the grape variety and of course, the winemaking. this is a really good example of #grenacheBlanc. #garnachablanca #terraalta — 7 days ago
