Nice Muscat. Not quite living up to Sauternes style dessert wine but dark fig flavor was still good — 8 years ago

Exuberant and full bodied blend of local Gros Manseng and other indigenous varieties from the much lesser-known South West of France. Forget all those CH's and SB's and submerge into the unknown! Dense-rich-textural, fresh, complex and aromatic.
It has what is probably the most engaging and surprising wine label I have come across.
A part of the exciting portfolio of Producteurs Plaimont, the biggest and most successful cooperative of the area.

2010 vintage. Honey, ripe Apple, and roasted nuts. Great nose! M+ acid and M body. On the palate- honey, apricot, roasted nuts. Long finish and balanced. Started out sweet but dry at the end. Great price point for a beautifully complex wine. — 9 years ago

A Rose to imbibe with the in laws! We had a good conversation over this Rose that was made from this organic cooperative. Beautiful and bright; this 3 liter box under $30 was perfect! — 10 years ago

Rich, deep tropical fruit and honeyed nose with just a hint of smoke. The palate is full and sweet and bursting with fresh acidity. Fresh flavors of peach and apricot lead to a long and sweet but not cloying finish. — 10 years ago

All you expect from Nebbiolo and a stellar cooperative at an early drinking approachable profile. The 2012 Barbaresco by contrast is lock down tannins! — 8 years ago

A lovely hand blown pre-coop bottle. A seriously dense wine! Nose is a little closed but opens up in the glass to reveal apricots, honey, marmalade, soaked sultanas, christmas pudding, and layers of complex floral notes. There is some acidity at the back but it's the sweetness that kicks you in the mouth; a dense, viscous, almost creamy sweetness that just hoes on and on. Perhaps that's my only criticism; that the sugar is a bit overpowering. There's great depth though, and it easily carried the alcohol, despite achieving what's likely to be 18-19% (not stated in the label, which simply reads "SAMOS"!). A phenomenal surprise and one of the best fortified wines of my life! — 8 years ago

A solid and deep Corbieres from the small and unique cooperative of Castelmaure. Earthy, herby with scents of warm bush, thyme and dry leaves. Dried figs and spices complete the picture and add character. Full-bodied, rich and deep on the palate with fine and ripe tannins. medium acidity. A wine for food. — 10 years ago

We'll see if Delectable can figure out the name of this wine - I had to create it on CellarTracker. Made by a social interest cooperative in Costers del Segre, just west of Barcelona, this blend of Cava grapes (Chardonnay + Macabeo) is focused and beautiful. A swirling array of flavours, largely not fruit-based -- talcum, buttered popcorn, rubber, varnish, baked pear, cinnamon, mineral, celery -- yes, I swear, all in the same wine -- then scorching straight-line acidity on the back end of the palate that carries the wine through into a long, herbal-tinged finish. Somehow takes an intense approach to a fairly neutral set of flavours. Stunning. — 12 years ago
