Good dry wine with a special fruit taste. — 9 years ago
Unusual nose and profile; a bit reduced, cherry vanilla with funk — 9 years ago
Celebrating a little. Red and rosey with savory notes. — 10 years ago
Garnacha from Alicante (locally called Giró I believe), a small parcel of old vines tended by a husband and wife. Juicy Bing cherries wrapped in wildly feral leather swaddling. Extremely bright acidity, and BBQ friendly. — 10 years ago
For the price point a real steal. Gamey and slightly animalistic on the nose, leading into cherries, dry, fine tannins, and some chalky notes. — 11 years ago

A staple at my apartment. An all around good dinner wine. — 12 years ago
Deliciously complex and nuanced Mencia. This was fantastic with a great balance of flavor and acidity. — 13 years ago
Garnacha, Jaen (mencia), a host of others. Can something be both Mediterranean and mountainous and reflect character of both? Yes, here's proof. Wild side of garnacha- sage, thyme, black currant- mixed with licorice and plum. Sawdust tannins but non invasive and bright, clear acidity — 8 years ago
Took a chance on this one. I'm glad I did. Bright and juicy with great tannins. Opened it and left it for a few minutes and it opened up lovely — I loved it even more. So juicy!!! — 10 years ago
Suprisingly complex for a $12 red; dark berries, earthy notes and bright acidity — 10 years ago
This is my new fave! Love it, love it, love it!! Perfect for relaxing on the deck on a summer day. — 11 years ago
What you could almost call the epic rant on the massive rear label of this wine is itself worth the price of admission, which I think was around $17. This stuff is cloudy and funky and unrepentantly "natural" and really pissed off some winos who frequent my facebook feed a few months ago, basically, I guess, because it is one thing to be a natural wine and quite another to run an almost aggressive manifesto of non-interventionism on a queen-sized sheet of a back label. Nothing crisp or clean about this but it is awesome and unique and something like having a picnic in a musty hayloft with someone you aren't married to and whose language you might not even speak. — 11 years ago
great local Madrid cuvee...needs to open a bit but drinks well. — 12 years ago
Opened this with homemade beef stew and it was really delicious with a punch.

Very easy to drink and a good flavor. Reasonable prices per bottle too! — 14 years ago
Burgundian elegance and complexity in Grenache form. Highly drinkable now with extremely fine tannins and balanced acidity. Such a happy wine. — 9 years ago
Rich depth some blackberry with a little kick on the finish. Very good — 9 years ago
First Spanish bottle. Good dry Granache (Granache grapes only). Dark cherry, light white pepper, mellow tannins, with an easy finish. Needs a bit of air. Would love with food bc not too sharp and wouldn't be a drastic change in taste like most reds. Could drink all night. Also not too sweet ❤ — 10 years ago
Liked this a lot. Great structure, intense, a tad heavy but overall a real winner. — 10 years ago
Light, summery and only a little sweet (in a good way). Definitely taste the fruit, or as my husband said, "it's almost like drinking strawberry juice." — 11 years ago
Right up my street, a bargain at Tesco right now (2008 vintage). — 11 years ago
A rich complex intriguing wine. Dark fruit, nut and pepper. Tannins but not too much. Really amazing value, and for 7 years old still tastes incredibly vibrant. — 11 years ago
They make a fantastic wine with a lot of personality. This is an exemplar of what Bierzo can really be. Truffled, elegant, but not stuffy. — 12 years ago
