Selección de Añada Rías Baixas Albariño 2014

Ten year old Albariño, I wanted to give it a shot. The wine certainly retains is freshness, salinity, the essence is there. The peach and stone fruit flavor gets a bit more savory. Cheers. — 9 months ago

Viñas de Gain Selección de Añada Rioja Tempranillo 2005

Thanks to @Ron R I was able to try an older vintage, still needed a 2nd day & 3 hour decant to open up. I think the low scores from others is because they didn’t give it enough air.
Thanks Ron!

This wine does need some severe coaxing. Completely agree that day 2/3 gives you a better look 👀

@Benjamin Keator had his hosting at the CC tonight and it was absolutely incredible. What a night of gorgeous wines! All wines are guessed blind.

This dessert wine is about the same age as my Dad. When you can associate a wine/vintage personally, it really opens your eyes to how wine can hold. This is undoubtedly Pedro Ximenez, which I guessed. It reminds me of a non-vintage port with a balsamic mix to it. Tons of black licorice, old brown sugar, and the aforementioned balsamic vinaigrette note. Incredible for the age.

Bodegas Montecillo

Gran Reserva Selección Especial Tempranillo 1981

Mogen Rioja som fått ligga till sig på flaska i decennium. Doften är mäktig. Plommon, mörka bär, oliver och vanilj. Smaken har tydlig ålder och den initiala fatlagringen känns. Mogna plommon, svart te, dill, grön paprika, kakao, örter, anis. En fint avslut med antydan av tanin. — 7 years ago
