5/19/2024 - Islamabadbadbad Likes this wine: 90 pointsBig, masculine, well structured wine. Nose with meaty, cured salami notes up front, followed by equally powerful red fruit like cherries, raspberries, and a hint of blackberry, some vanilla, tamarind. Palate is medium bodied, well structured with nice medium plus acid and plus plus tannins, dry, mild EtOH. Very good, and a killer at the price point. Drinks well, will probably hold up and develop for 10 years at least. |

5/16/2024 - funderwood10 Likes this wine: 89 pointsDelicious, but may benefit from a few years more. Extremely light at first, then quite tart cherry, ends with thick tannins that catch up, bringing some oak and leather as well. The tannins being a tad bit milder would elevate it significantly |

5/12/2024 - trumpet60201 Likes this wine: 92 pointsVery nice wine, showing lovely lemon notes on the nose, and a sharp focused palate, which is not overly acidic. The finish is fairly long. It doesn't open up or have as much depth as I expected, but maybe that will come with time. Lovely with oysters. |

2022 Raul Pérez Rías Baixas SketchAlbariño more |
5/7/2024 - thesternowl wrote: 94 pointsPopped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2022 Sketch pours a bright straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is youthful with fascination notes of white and yellow flowers, nettles, lemon, strawberry, orange pith, hot steel, wet stone, and oh the minerals! On the palate, the wine is dry with high acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is so long and ever so saline. This was my first bottle of Sketch (finally!) which has been a bit of a unicorn wine for me. I’ve long had a deep respect for Raul Pérez but this wine has confirmed a special place reserved in my heart for him. They say once bitten… Drink now through 2039. |

5/7/2024 - thesternowl wrote: 92 pointsPopped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. Although this is Godello from Bierzo, this was meant to be a fun counter example to Sketch which is arguably a bit unique when it comes to Raul Pérez’s typical style. The 2020 “La Claudina” pours a deeper straw color with notes of lemons, grapefruit, Brazil nuts, hazel nuts (yeah, it’s definitely more in the oxidative style) and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and saline with a slightly sherried, creamy texture. Charming stuff and definitely something I would like to track over time. Enjoy now through 2035. Thanks Matt! |

4/29/2024 - sid_loves_wine Likes this wine: 92 pointsVery delicious and fresh; yet I'm rating it a point lower than the last vintage I tasted (2018) as this was a bit more natty/funky, vibrant but less focused, compared to the super fresh and precise (but also clean and dialed-in) 2018. This 2020 showed lots of slightly funky strawberry, raspberry etc with a bit of salty umami and beautiful, gentle tannins. I like that the high acid is pretty well-integrated, not too puckery, but the fermentation is a little wild, giving it a faint kombucha character. My first instinct when blind tasting was some very natty Pinot Noir, and I couldn't figure out the region whatsoever. |

4/27/2024 - andrewfowler Likes this wine: 88 pointsDelicate lemon and fresh baguette on the nose, and the palate balances tree fruit (green apple aplenty) with citrus, maybe some very light florals and watermelon. The finish has some kind of funky flavor to it, can’t quite put my finger on it, and a slight pecorino cheese note emerges on the nose over time, along with acetone. I’m not sure whether I’d call these “off notes,” but they’re definitely iffy for some, although I enjoyed. That being said, the acidity is pronounced and quite pleasant and fruity, it’s the acidity of crispy green apples. This would go so well with a croque-monsieur. |

4/25/2024 - whits wrote: 91 pointsStewed strawberry and blueberry scents, layered but tight overall, smooth through the mouth, hints of raspberry, plum and bitter melon, feels spicy on the end, distinctive and wide, needs more time, the tannin holds tough |

4/20/2024 - Takao wrote: 90 pointsDeep ruby color. Med plus aromas of black cherry, red plum, black berry, blueberry, cedar, toast, violet, leather, some VA, and a bit of orange peel and coffee. Really good balance of fruits, floral notes and earthiness. Fruits are just ripe. Though color is young there’s some tertiary notes. Dry, med plus body, high acid, grainy, med(+) tannins, long finish. Good now but think it has a space for improvement over time. Thought a darker Pinot but this is Bierzo Tinto. Maybe grainy, slightly stalky tannin quality is the key - not really common for PN, but this might be just the producer’s style due to high whole cluster percentage. This got less interesting over time in a glass losing fresh fruits and gaining stemmy spiciness. There is a bit of bitterness on the palate probably from the stem. Fantastic value. 90+ |

4/19/2024 - 2caveman Likes this wine: 92 pointsThis second tasting in a mere 3 weeks illustrates the mystery of wine. What I first experienced as a good but unexceptional wine became a quite exhilarating tasting experience. On the nose and palate emerged most unusual and primal aromas and flavors. No idea what lanolin smells and tastes like but somehow that fits the bill. Loved this bottle and agree it has potential for major longevity. Will order more and track over coming decade |

4/7/2024 - SMHalps Likes this wine: 91 pointsNo formal notes taken. Part of an "off the beaten track of Spain" wine night with my group. This was my favorite, but it may have been because this wine was the closest to wines that I am familiar with. The others were oddball grapes from less than mainstream growing areas. |

4/2/2024 - DH90 Likes this wine: 89 pointsMedium yellow-gold color. Aromas of green apples and lemon peel. Moderate acidity that made this a great wine to accompany appetizers. It was less aromatic and floral overall than the last time that I tried it. Still it was a crowd pleaser. |
