, Gary Vaynerchuk
Spanish and Argentinean Wine Tasting with a Special Guest, Episode #968 (1/14/2011)
Red Blend - Rioja, Spain. #2; VaynerPAZZZ; COLOR-dark; NOSE-earthy component on the attack; a lot of raspberry; an old world style, but not to funky; a little floral components as well; PALATE-the rose petal floral action follows through on the palate; kind of grainy; an earthy tone; some good acidity; good tannins; this is 10 years old, but extremely fresh; good long finish; a little copper component; this is solid, but not cheap at $55 bones; JR-93; GV-90 90 points |

Spanish and Argentinean Wine Tasting with a Special Guest, Episode #968 (1/14/2011)
Red Blend - Priorat, Spain. #3; VaynerPAZZZ; COLOR-dark; NOSE-a chemically Fabreze element; some bright blackberries; big wine; more New World; PALATE-this is a young wine; it's solid, there's a delicious factor and well made, but a hair uninspired; a little too textbook and nothing stands out (like white bread); it's good, but boring; JR-91; GV-88 88 points |

Spanish and Argentinean Wine Tasting with a Special Guest, Episode #968 (1/14/2011)
Red Blend - Argentina. #1; COLOR-dark; NOSE-violets; some dusty powdered candy; some smokiness; I do like this nose; it's kind of dense; PALATE-big time delicious factor; it tastes like candy; this is bombastic and not a great fine food wine; great casual wine; I'm impressed with this wine; extremely delicious, but still balanced enough; a nice charcoal component; a very nice fruit bomb and a nice value at $20 bones; a fun wine that's good with fun foods or drink by itself; JM-91; GV-89+ 89+ points |
