Pleasantly surprised, had a unique oakiness scent and then tasted just as good. Compelling enough to drink by itself and probably versatile with different foods. — 6 years ago

ワイナリー和泉屋税別1800円のスペインワイン。
店主絶賛、8000円台の味わいとのコメントも。
香りはオレンジにいちごシャム。温度が上がると黒糖系も加わるが、それほど好ましい香りではない。
しかしながら、軽やかであり甘味と酸味のバランス、シルキーなタンニンとそのアフターの長さが全てを払拭。鶏もも肉によく合いました。 — 6 years ago

A masterpiece of Sierra de Gredos, something to explore. Color light red, nose oozing of fruity, delicious Garnacha, taste is so pure and very seductive. — 7 years ago

Floral, mineral nose yet quite a bit of tannins. Almost feels chewy. This is one of the most interesting wines I’ve had in a while — 7 years ago

Naked and transparent, but stands firm with full confidence.
Lovely perfume of red fresh berries, fresh herbs and a red floral and peppermint-lift and orange blossom, over a platform of undergrowth
, nutmeg and mother rock.
Enters the room somewhat shy on the palate, but soon builds character and confidence over the palate. A stoney minerality and good acidity brings nerve and tension over an expansive mid palate with a strong fatigue through a rather long finish. Makeup is not needed on true beauty,
And yea it could easily be mistaken for A Gredos Garnacha from Bernabeleva, Comando G, Land and the likes.
Paired with chicken breast with ndjuja smeared under the skin, roast potatoes and Jerusalem artichokes, and a chicken- tarragon velouté

A wonderful introduction to the Garnachas of the Sierra de Gredos region in Madrid, Spain. A unique and perhaps one of most expressive versions of this well travelled variety. Fresh but ripe strawberries, raspberry cola and lavender is followed by a very defined stem-like spicyness and a crushed stoney minerality. A piercing freshness and plenty of energy drives the palate, gripping but fine grained tannis and a solid finish. This entry level wine from Maronones is a true bargain — 6 years ago

Perfumed, Pinot-like Gredos Garnacha from a low-yield, long abandoned vineyard on mainly granitic soils in Cadalso de los Vidrios, at approximately 2,700 ft above sea level. Like other producers in the are, grapes underwent whole-cluster fermentation (con raspón). Aged for 12 months in used 300 liter barrels. Light ruby color, fragrant (strawberries, floral) and elegant — 7 years ago

Located in Sierra de Gredos, west of Madrid, Bernabeleva is a driving force of the ”new” Spanish wine movement that is getting well-earned attention from the wine world. The Garnachas of Gredos pose with a unique expression, marked with plenty of freshness and ”minerality” due to the high altitude and the granite soils.
The Vina Bonita, Bernabelevas top wine, comes from 2.8 ha single vineyard with 80 year old vines. Fermented in Wood with long maceration, matured on French barriques for ”as long as necessary”. Only 900 bottled produced of the 2016 vintage.

The wine is an act of elegance, a true showstopper concentrated red berry fruit with red florals and a balsamic-herby almost orange like lift, followed by a pronounced earthy and stony minerality.
A fresh acidity and slight lip gripping tannins with a very fine, almost powdery texture, a tactile sensation and strong fatigues drives the mineral, red fruited palate which breach across the palate in a long and expansive finish.

Unfiltered and very very cloudy skin-contact Sauvignon Blanc from vineyards around the village of El Tiemblo in Gredos. Aged in amphorae and acacia barrels. Complex nose with aromas apricot, herbal notes and resin (hints of paint). Fresh, mineral, saline, nice subtly bitter finish. Less funky than it appears. Quite a surprise — 6 years ago

Sunday night and I have opened the 2016 Comando G La Bruja De Rozas Garnacha. 100% Garnacha from the Las Rozas de Puerto Real in the Sierra de Gredos near Madrid.

The nose has aromas of strawberry, raspberry, black cherry, licorice vanilla and earth.

The palate has wonderful red fruits of raspberry, cherry, strawberry, anise, cinnamon, a minerality and dusty earth.

This wine is medium to full bodied with a smooth elegance, medium+ acidity and medium+ fine tannins that lead to a long fruit filled finish. For a village wine and the price this has blown me away. Have a great week ahead and please be safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 7 years ago
