Pale green in the glass, showing distinctive saline aroma, green fruit and vaguely caramel character. Very dry in the mouth, with chalky green apple and nutty flavours together with a subtle trace of banana. Finishes with nutty dryness and sharp acidic bite. Drink well-chilled as an apéritif.
Aromas of dark fruit and spice, a little smoky, elegant, balanced and savoury with silky tannins, smooth texture, a firm structure and lovely freshness. Still has loads of time, the wine, as it is known to do, should continue to age nicely for years to come. A blend of Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo. Think braised meats.
Deep, bright colour with aromas and flavours of loads of black fruit, multi-layered, complex, graphite minerality and fresh with a tightly constructed core, powerful, yet elegant and refined with fine tannins, bright acidity and a long lasting finish. Delicious and approachable now with some air, but will develop well for several years in the cellar.
Dark ruby. Deep nose with black fruits notes buried under heavy oak. Full bodied, thick texture and chewy tannins. Balsamic notes start to appear in the mid-palate and continue into the long finish. Hold 5 years and drink over the next 5.
Bobal is a Spanish grape native to the Utiel-Requena region in Valencia. Its dense purple-black colour gives you a visual sense of its concentration of fruit flavour. The spicy, cedary, sandalwood nose of plums and cherries has a delightful floral note that follows through on the palate. Medium-bodied and dry, it has a flavour of crushed blueberries and red flowers that fills the mouth, carried on fresh acidity to a firm, tannic finish.
From pre-phylloxera vines over 100 years old, the wine is bright on the nose and dense, textural and powerful on the palate while still maintaining an incredible drinkability due to its balance and acidity. Long and complex, a great example of a white wine that can easily stand up to and compliment red meat.
Gentle peach, pear gummies, melons, orange blossoms fill the fleshy, soft palate of this Garnatxa Blanca (White Grenache). Typical of the grape, this is wide and low in acidity. 20-year-old grapes from Terra Alta in northern Spain are kept in stainless and meant to be drunk young and fresh. White grapefruit and bright orange is strung throughout to the snappy finish.
