Dinar a Terra Dominicata. Un rosado diferente. Nada que ver con un rosado fresco y ligero. Me ha gustado acompañando toda la comida.

Reynaud Tasting (Freiheit Vinothek, Ulm, Germany): Glass: Spiegelau Universal
All wines tasted blind/blind, opened a few hours before and decanted right before the tasting.
Clear, deep ruby color. Completely different from the other Reynaud wines. Pirate?
Nose with some brett, wild flavors, a bit sweet/sour.
On the palate fresh, a bit unbalanced, wild, sweet/sour. Another Fonsalette? Good texture, long finish. 87-88

medium ruby. nose of red fruit, plum, blackcurrant, vanilla, butter, spices, leather. right after opening, the oaky notes seemed not well integrated, but it got better after some time. lengthy finish of black fruits. had some sediments. bit of a shame that the oaky flavors died out after a day after opening and made the wine less interesting.

Montsant, the baby brother of Priorat. Organic. 50% Garnacha 40% Cariñena and 10% Syrah. Soil is Licorella and clay. Punch down during fermentation. Aged 6 months in large vats and then transferred to barrels.
Nose shows baked blueberry but very earthy and savory. Palate shows nice structure, med+ acidity, med+ but fine tannins despite age.

Bumping the score a bit because QPR here is very good. This garnacha blend has some nice funk to it with major mushroom/forest floor type qualities. This would be a great wine for a pinot fan and/or someone into funkier stuff including nattys.

Nose of dark fruit with a hint of flint.
Palate of blueberries and blackberries with reductive notes and light tannins. Very well balanced. Drink again.

Jólasmakk Eðalklúbbsins 2022 (Hlíðarás 10): Loftað í 1-2 tíma. Vínið er í ljósari kantinum, tæplega meðaldökkt. Þarna eru í nefi: Fjós, sæta. Þungur ilmur. Olía og bílskúr. Svo koma fram vanilla, tóbak, ljóst píputóbak. Flottur ilmur. Í munni er vínið létt, ferskt og þarna eru ljósir ávextir. Það má líka finna möndlutóna jafnvel út í amarettó líkjör. Svolítið stammt. Þurrkandi tannín. Í eftirbragði blóðappelsína, lakkrís, pipar og mynta. Prófaði að færa vínið úr syrah glasi yfir í cabernet glas en það kom ekki vel út. Í heildina ágætis vín sem gæti jafnvel batnað aðeins. Eitt af betri hraðsmakksvínunum.

Uppskerusmakk, haust 2022 (Marbakkabraut 12): Frekar ljóst á litinn. Í nefi: Tyggjó, brennd karamella, jarðarber, tjara. Þarna er líka að finna reykelsi og suðræna ávexti. Ananas, appelsínur og sæt melóna voru nefnd. Krydd, pipar mátti einnig greina. Á tungunni var sæta áberandi. Þarna voru brjóstsykurstónar, mentól einna helst en líka mikill ávöxtur. Kaffi og lakkrís í eftirbragði. Áhugavert vín. Bolli greindi þetta vín svo betur í hraðsmakksnótum.

醒酒一个半小时,淡宝石红色,闻香有很淡的腌菜味,碾碎的红色水果,以及一些草药味。入口酸度中高,单宁紧涩,细沙颗粒,量多得有点糊嘴,口中是草莓红果和草药的味道,后段辛辣,有酒精感,余味果香为主。这时草药味比较明显,单宁感强,需要进一步醒酒,做了一次换瓶,一个小时后再饮,香气更加开放,月季花,红果,些许烟熏,带着芝麻香气,入口单宁依然紧涩,但比一个小时前好些了,更加甜美一些,活泼的红果伴随着果糖气息,非常直接,酒体不轻,有一种喝浓缩果汁的感觉,后段透出一股力量感,伴随着喉间酒精的灼烧。没有橡木桶的影响,品尝的是最直接的果味,一款风格鲜明的歌海娜作品。之前喝过2017年也是同样喝高酒精度果汁的畅快感,这次2015,没想到依然很活泼,几乎没有明显陈年迹象,酒风甚至更加强劲,现在饮用稍微早了点,还可以放很多年,突然开始期待这支酒陈年后会有怎样的变化。

A seamless blend. To me this smooth a texture for a Priorat style blend is a hallmark of the small amounts of Merlot and Cabernet in there. Ever so slight whiff of sulphur. Minimal oak used, undetectable. Some dark spiced expressed through the fruit. Fresh and relatively light bodied. Tannins a little rough. Healthy acidity. Great value. Won’t buy more today, but was looking forward to trying this and glad I did. Will do the same for future vintages.

Ruby red with clear and pure nose of red fruit mixed with scents of blackberry, plum and tobacco. Similar impression on the palate with additional green notes present and less dark fruit, with blueberry and some candy. A bit harsh by itself, delicious with food.

gold with copper highlights. Surrounding Priorot, the higher altitude Montsant DO was created in 2001, its name taken from the Montsant massif ('holy mountain') that dominates the region's landscape. Here, Romans first planted. The soil is a local specialty known as 'llicorella', which is high in granite and slate components. Blend of Macabeo (or Viura in Rioja), Garnacha Blanca, and Cartoixà (Xarel-lo). Perfect Yummy balance of musky, floral, and herbal notes. Waterfall acidity. 30+ second finish. Reminds me of a rubber shoe sole in the best way. Excellent w/food. Chaîne explorable. I anticipate it can age 5+ years

17 años a cuestas, ni más ni menos y aquí sigue, bien vivo. Color granate. Nariz expresiva, fruta roja, hierbas aromáticas toques especiados, cierta mineralidad. En boca el ataque es bueno, resulta carnoso, con acidez media, estructura media, largo y con profundidad.

Had a very nice Spanish Tinto tonight. It's a blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, and 20% Carignane/Merlot/CS. Wish it had a bigger nose but I detect Cherry, strawberry, dried herbs, and roasted meat. Palate is smooth and medium balanced. Fruity red berries and a hint of spice. Easy to drink! Good value

Beginning: leather, earthy, red cherry, chocolate. Slight minerals texture. Well balanced and finish is kind of long. Taste a bit natural.
After 30 min: white pepper, leather, cinnamon, some citrus skin. Red fruit smell goes away and follow with more spices. Great wine with good price!

A blend of Grenache (55%), Macabeo (20%), Carignan (10%), Grenache Blanc (10%) and Grenache Gris (5%) pressed and co-fermented together. The Grenaches bring fruit and volume, while Carignan and Macabeo bring acidity and keep the alcohol level moderate. The wine is slowly fermented and then aged for 6 months in small oak barrels, after which the barrels are blended together and aged for another 10 months in a large, 50 years old foudre and a 3000-liter clay vessel.

Pale bronze orange color with a light pinkish core. Sweet, peachy nose with aromas of juicy stone fruits, some leather, a little bit of bretty funk, light brambly notes of raspberry, a hint of creamy oak, a touch of earthy spice and a whiff of wild strawberry. The wine is ripe, rich and slightly funky on the palate with a full body and intense flavors of fresh peach, some leather, a little bit of phenolic spice, light crunchy notes of red apple, a hint of creamy oak and a touch of waxy funk. The overall feel is juicy, enjoyably complex and wonderfully fresh and structured for a wine this big and ripe, all thanks to the bright, high acidity, although there is also a minuscule hint of tannic texture here as well. The finish is rich, ripe and juicy with firm, dry-ish flavors of savory spices, some leathery funk, a little bit of peachy stone fruit, light smoky notes of phenolic spice, a sweet hint of apple jam and a touch of creamy oak.

A beautiful, complex and harmonious rosé that manages to blend a quite ripe and substantial style of wine into great, acid-driven freshness and slightly funky rusticity. It feels as if several different wines are joined together here as one, single and seamless union. A very distinctive, captivating and immensely enjoyable effort. This is drinking mighty well right now, but most likely will continue to evolve and improve for years more. A very lovely wine indeed. Highly recommended.

Bright and fresh creation from the married offspring of Priorat royalty, Martinet and Mogador (you can't make this stuff up!!). They're into it, they believe it, they feel it and they want to share it with us. Thoroughly enjoyable.
