Chacra Cinquenta Y Cinco Pinot Noir 2022
$120.00Fresh and floral nose with tiles, vibrant red berries and pomegranate. Stony, mineral verve. Pure and expressive with good tension on the medium-bodied palate. Silky, very nimble and elegant.

La Rioja Alta Vina Alberdi Reserva 2019
$75.00Gorgeous nose of creaming soda, nutmeg, cherry, raspberry and thyme. Plush and round in shape, with strong oak influence and some tertiary notes poking through. Aniseed, sandalwood, cinnamon, vanilla and sweet Jamon. These I suspect will become more prominent with time. Utterly idiosyncratic and a beautiful introduction to traditional Rioja.

Akutain Reserva Rioja 2017
$80.00One of the finest traditional Reservas on the market and incredible value. If this was Bordeaux or Burgundy, the price would be much higher. Blackcurrant, plum, cranberry, raspberry, aniseed, tobacco, vanilla, violets and cola. Medium to full bodied, incredibly fresh and vibrant, certainly firm and serious. Flecks of savoury spice, dried fruit and firm mineral […]

Pesquera Reserva Especial 2010
$100.00Deep ruby. Explosive, oak-spiced aromas of cherry compote, blackberry, vanilla and potpourri, with a hint of smoked meat slowly emerging with aeration. Smooth, sweet and focused on the palate, offering bitter cherry and blackcurrant flavors that are given lift and spine by juicy acidity. Shows a sexy floral quality on the long, smoky finish, which […]

Achaval-Ferrer Mendoza Malbec 2019
$60.00Sourced from a dry, warm and low-yielding year, the 2019 Malbec fermented with selected yeast and matured in used barriques for eight months. It is ripe and varietal with spicy and smoky aromas from the elevage in oak. It has fine tannins and good balance and freshness. Better with food. 250,000 bottles produced. It was […]

Valenciso Rioja Reserva 2015
$65.00The most sweetly fruited of traditional Rioja, with rich cassis, raspberry, morello cherry, sweet vanilla, sandalwood and oiled leather. The oak is perfectly integrated, so often it’s raw in traditional Rioja upon release, but not here. Flavours folded, glistening, melting tannins ever present, that soften towards the close. It’s very hard to resist now, so […]

La Rioja Alta Finca Martelo 2015
$110.00Intensely complex and aromas of blueberry, sweet raspberry, dark cherry, blackberry, lavender soap, lavender wood and five spice. Boom! So much energy and muscle, super tight, tense and coiled. Even the tannins are complex, sleek, firm and finally, powdery. Deep core and not the concentration of sweet fruit, but a deep core of savoury, spicy, […]

Pesquera Ribera del Duero Tinto Crianza 2019
$65.00A real mouthful of warm, fruit-coated deliciousness. Just about the richest Crianza on the market. Seductive dark fruits of cassis, plum and dark cherry. Lavender, cola, sweet liquorice, dark chocolate and coal. Still there’s vibrancy, almost playful, amongst the weight and heft of forceful, hessian-like tannins. Balanced and long, and the overall impression is that […]

Pesquera Ribera del Duero Reserva 2019
$105.00This renowned 100% Tempranillo–once famously called “the Pétrus of Spain” by Robert Parker, comes from Estate vineyards in Lucia, Vina Alto and Llano Santiago. These are high elevation sites (2,400 feet) and the vines between 30 and 40 years of age. The soils are poor and well-drained and are composed of sand and gravel over […]

Condado De Haza Ribera del Duero Crianza 2018
$50.00Perhaps a little less plush than than the Pesquera Crianza’s, with more earth and ferrous notes. It’s not rustic, a little less fine perhaps, but I love it’s burliness. Spice laden, dark fruits, some crunchy red ones too, lavender wood, smoke and bay leaf. Presence of chew, the tannins a rougher velvet and a vibrancy […]

Valenciso 10 Anos Rioja 2012
$110.00The subtle, elegant and complex 2012 10 Años Después (10 years after!) matured for four years in concrete followed by four more years in Caucasian oak barrels that polished it. It has an incredible 15% alcohol, which doesn’t show at all, and the wine comes through as balanced and elegant, powerful too but with no […]
