Interesting wine. Kept changing and evolving in a good way. Started things off with a bit of menthol followed by blueberries, blackberries, currant and violets. Prieto Picudo’s the grape from Leon, Spain. Seek it and know it., if you can find it. You’ll be rewarded plenty by the masterful hand of Raul Perez. — 6 years ago

If you want to test you tolerance for strange wines or you are a wine geek 🤓 this is it. Very much like an oxidized Jura wine made from the savagnin grape but this is Albarin not Albariño! Tastes like a sherry at first. Super nutty and corky but not corked! Kind of like grape cider. Bracing acidity. Drink this by itself and muse over the flavor for hours. Or pair it with stinky cheeses Goat, aged Taleggio a blue cheese etc. . This is not a wine for a dinner party with friends. I actually think cheese screws up our palate but this wine can take it! Bottle 447 of 670 made. An experience but only for the brave. Only available from Max Kogod in the US. — 7 years ago

Outstanding, one of the best whites I've ever had. It is so enchanting and perfect. It is golden, more like a fortified wine, yet it has fruit, balance, acidity. — 10 years ago

Made in the natty/dank way, an approach that does nothing for this wine...unless you enjoy the smell of cooked vegetables, raw herbs and tobacco in your red wine. However, there’s also a purity, juiciness and energy that wholly redeems it in the end. A really good wine that could’ve been great. #raulperez #bierzo #mencia — 6 years ago

Acid and high dose n tannins freshly opened. After breathing it turned around to be a magnificent Grenache!! Had it with steak. Very good combo — 9 years ago

So fresh. Reminds me of Gamay at first. Deep dark red. Quite tannic dark berries black cherries hint cedar chalky a touch bitter. This has years to go. Needs many hours of decanting. Bottle 170 out of ? Very small production. From Max Kogod. — 7 years ago

Dark fruit and a cool streak that reminded me of northern Rhône syrah. A big wine but it doesn’t hit you over the head. Tannins are relatively soft, wine is silky and open, maybe the whole cluster effect — 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

This is the AUSLESE. A nose full of mature tropical fruit. In the mouth honeyed fruit with moderate viscosity. Surprisingly very clean fruit and barely a hint of petrol. Only the short finish kept it from a higher score. — 9 years ago
