(AQUILON) Spain Dear Friends, ...a few more noteworthy wines from Iberia while I am in the air. I will let you figure out how I just sent this from 38,000 ft (it has something to do with GSM and satellites)... 2004 Vinas del Cenit (Vino de la Tierra de Zamora) STRICT LIMIT 24/person From the top 2004 vintage, here is a wine a number of you have asked for so here it is - with perfect provenance at an eye-opening price: 2002 Bodegas Alto Moncayo "Aquilon" (Aragon) EXTREMELY LIMITED This is another wine I've had a lot of requests for and while I wouldn't be able to stomach it, my job is to provide you with the lowest prices and the finest provenance. I offer plenty of high-acid/no fruit wine all year (that many of you can't stomach) so turn-about is fair play... 2003 Benjamin Romeo "La Vina Andres" (Rioja) EXTREMELY LIMITED 200 bottles for the entire US and I actually could stomach this - in fact it's serious wine. Thank you, Jon Rimmerman Garagiste Seattle, WA Spain9210 Spain9220 Spain9230

Bought on Release and stored at 57F. Was not expecting this to be as great as it turned out. Nice.

To decant or not? 2006 Pinot Noir and a few more: I have not had this since release. Not the greatest vintage, this wine is still going strong. A few of us did wonder how Garnacha can make a black wine. In any event, the nose has plums, raspberries, and vanilla. On the palate, this is not as big as I was expecting. It is youthful with a nice complexity. Juicy texture. Nice balance. Mostly black raspberries but some dark cherries. Nice finish.
