Cherry and spice on the nose. Almost white peppery. A bit bitter at fitst but gets better. Very woody tannind and a lot of oak. I think a long decant might help do this wine justice. — 9 years ago

A blend of Godello, Doña Blanca and Colgadeira (?) from very old vines in Val do Bibei village of Manzaneda. Fermented and raised 6 months in 2nd use French barrels. 735 bottles for her first vintage.
Sexy texture and weight to this wine, it takes more of the oak onto itself than the Palomino. Pear skins, bees wax, wet granite, and a hint of vanilla on the finish. Needs scallops or lobster type of seafood fo' shizzle. — 9 years ago
Really nice and light with smooth finish. Just my style. Tried paired with a vegetable ash finished aged goat cheese and Whole Foods and ended up buying both, they paired do nicely. — 11 years ago

Very very good red Pinot from the Alsace region - a special red from St. Hippolyte that makes stopping here a must if you are in the region. If not in the region, get online and book a ticket to fly into Mulhouse and drive around vino bliss - just do it! — 12 years ago
Would have not guess it was an Albariño. Great balance and minerality. — 8 years ago
