Viva Diva

Bodegas Gutiérrez de la Vega

Casta Diva Cosecha Dorada Moscatel 2021

Such a damn fine example what Muscat de petit grains dried in the sun can be. Made into the sweet (but not too sweet), spicy aromatic concoction that can be found in many countries. Miel? Yes but I get a lot of dried apricot equally. The residual sugar is IMHO perfectly balanced by the remaining acids. One of the best examples of desert Muscat I've had anywhere. Good cold but maybe even better at cool room temp.

Diva Prestige Cuvee Napa Valley Sparkling Blend 2001

Fabulous after 20 years. Took 15 min for a sour-tartness to mellow out, but it was delicious with fruity, flinty, and bready notes… wish we had more! — 3 years ago

Casta Diva Cosecha Miel Alicante Muscat 2014

I ask for a sweet wine not from Jerez (Sherry) and she gives me a taste and says do you want a full glass? To this wine I say F*#& yes! Super acidity makes this drinkable as heck! Passion fruit, papaya, beeswax, honeysuckle and bitter orange notes on the nose and palate. Nice mouthfeel, with body yet super smooth. Paired with chocolate mousse and passion fruit ice cream, I am feeling extremely guilty and already planning my run for tomorrow morning! — 5 years ago

Clos Fantine

Faugères Natural Wine Carignan Blend 2017

An absolute delight. Aromatic earthiness and fruit that translates well to the palate. Reminiscent of the alea viva. Consider this a repeat. Had with a robust ham and green beans dinner. — 4 years ago
