Cantoebro Bodegas
Reto Reserva Rioja Tempranillo
Cherry cola, plum and baking spice with a hint of green pepper. Bold with a nice balance of vegetal notes combined with something approximating a date square. Paired with braised beef short rib in a balsamic reduction with truffled celeriac purée at Barocco in Montreal Canada. — 4 months ago

Côtes du Ventoux il Était Une Fois White Blend 2022
Outstanding. We picked this up at a new French restaurant where the owner is also importing small batch wines from friends and family in Provence. This wine is complex with melon and pineapple on the nose and a unique minerality and a creamy yeasty lemon curd. Loved it. — 4 months ago
@Shawn Thompson vintage? Thanks
@Ira Schwartz it was 2022. Highly recommend this one. The minerality is superb.

A gorgeous fruit expression with this rosé. Nose is strawberries with a hint of cranberries, the palate is sour cherries, quite dry and a little funky. Given its bright jewel toned salmon colouring - I was expecting something quite sweet, but this wine expressed elegance, good acidity and was quite dry. — an hour ago
