    Bizarre plastic smells from a bottle that apparently had been open long time ago. Astringent at its beginning degenerates into a bitter sweetness at its end.

    Extraños olores a plastico de una botella que al parecer llevaba tiempo abierta. Astringente en su inicio degenera hacia un dulzor amargoso en su final.

    From a new bottle. Soft cava, no intrusive bubble, no excessive acidity. Nothing offensive, nothing to die for.

    De una botella nueva. Cava suave, sin burbuja intrusiva, sin acidez desorbitada. Nada ofensivo, nada por lo que morir.

  • 2020 Hammeken Cellars Monastrell Alicante Gran Allegranza

    Spain, Valencia, Alicante

    (1/26/2024)

    Recognizable from the first snort. Lots of black fruit, currants and plums. A bed of licorice and anthracite. In the mouth it is full, rustic, of an astringent acidity with length that ends abruptly.

    Reconocible desde la primera esnifada. Mucha fruta negra, grosellas y ciruelas. Un fondo de regaliz y antracita. En boca es pleno, rústico, de una astringente acidez con longitud que termina de forma abrupta.

Flight 2 - Family (2 Notes)

  • 2021 CL.TO. Ortona Trebbiano d'Abruzzo Melatino

    Italy, Abruzzi, Trebbiano d'Abruzzo

    (1/25/2024)

    Screw cap. Aqueous lemon colour. Soft citrus and lily aromas. A light limestone blow also. Easy on the palate, without a firm structure but some acid and an almost sweet-bitter finish. Surprising considering what it really is.

    Tapón de rosca. Acuoso color limón. Suaves aromas cítricos y de lirios. Un ligero golpe calizo también. En boca es facilón, sin una firme estructura pero con acidez con un final entre dulce y amargo. Sorprendente considerando lo qué realmente es.

  • 2021 Cap de Nit Alicante T3

    Spain, Valencia, Alicante

    (1/21/2024)

    Sensational aromas of orange peel, iodine, Provencal herbs or tangerines. Cold, dry minerality.
    Good gastronomic acidity that covers up to the stomach, decent length and refreshing aftertaste. Youthful precision unfiltered, unfined.

    Sensacionales aromas a piel de naranja, yodo, hierbas provenzales o mandarinas. Mineralidad fría, secante.
    Buena acidez gastronómica que abarca hasta el estómago, decente longitud y refrescante retrogusto. Precisión juvenil sin filtrar, sin afinar.

Flight 3 - Airport Lounge (6 Notes)

Anything new? What a cr#p! Degenerates into something undrinkable.

  • NV Gonzalez-Byass Palomino Fino Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Tío Pepe (Muy Seco-Extra Dry)

    Spain, Andalucía, Jerez-Xérès-Sherry

    (1/28/2024)

    It still provides a perfect combination to eat all kinds of tapas. I love those notes of nuts. An ideal and lovely choice that continues to be undervalued.

    Sigue proporcionando una perfecta combinación para comer todo tipo de tapas. Me encantan las notas de frutos secos. Una elección ideal y segura que continúa siendo minusvalorada.

  • NV Codorníu Cava Brut Rosé

    Spain, Cava

    (1/28/2024)

    Pale cava in the glass. Raspberry and rose petals on the nose. Harmlessly very subtle. On the palate is better to remove its bubble to enjoy its gastronomic acidity and its slightly bitter end.

    Cava pálido en la copa. Frambuesa y pétalos de rosa en nariz. Inofensivamente muy sutil. Al paladar es mejor eliminar su burbuja para poder disfrutar de su gastronómica acidez y su ligeramente amargo final.

  • NV Codorníu Cava Cuvée Vintage Brut Organic

    Spain, Cava

    (1/28/2024)

    From a new bottle. Purely citrus on the nose. Indigestible acidity, burning in the esophagus, of a gigantic intrusive bubble and a short length. To be forgotten.

    De una botella nueva. Puramente cítrico en nariz. De acidez indigesta, quemando en el esófago, de una gigantesca burbuja intrusiva y una corta longitud. Para olvidar.

  • NV Raimat Bach Frizzante

    Spain

    (1/28/2024)

    Insignificantly on the nose, barely floral. On the palate it is unbalanced, with excessive acidity and an intrusive bubble.

    Insignificantemente en nariz, apenas floral. Al paladar se muestra desequilibrada, con una excesiva acidez y una burbuja intrusiva.

  • 2022 Bodegas Bocopa Alicante Marina Alta

    Spain, Valencia, Alicante

    (1/28/2024)

    Pale yellow colour. Artificial aroma between citrus and herbs. In the mouth stands out for its excessive acidity and insufficient length. A new waste of time.

    Pálido color amarillo. Artificial aroma entre cítricos y hierbas. En boca destaca por su desmesurada acidez y su insuficiente longitud. Una nueva pérdida de tiempo.

  • 2020 Bodegas LAN Rioja Crianza

    Spain, La Rioja, La Rioja Alta, Rioja

    (1/28/2024)

    From a new bottle. Strawberries and blackcurrants on the nose. Also wood to be polished. Lack of balance in the mouth, each element acts on its own including a powerful acidity and ending in a clearly astringent way. It needs a lot more time.

    De una botella nueva. Fresas y grosellas negras en nariz. También madera por pulir. Falta equilibrio en boca, cada elemento actúa por su cuenta incluyendo una poderosa acidez y finalizando de un modo claramente astringente. Necesita de bastante más tiempo.
