From what I have heard about the wines, the price is very attractive. I will admit though that I was not attracted by the three pack purchase. But I persevered.

I thought the '15 Chantegrive had a good showing at the UGC tasting in Chicago, and affordable as well.

Went ahead and order from FP:
3 2013 Nebbiola
6 2012 Sangiovese
I drink 1 Nebbiola which needs to rest a bit for every 2 Sangio which will no last long, hoping for an inventory reduction sale, maybe I should just fill the case.

VHR coming up, but then need a break. Was *very* close to pulling the trigger on 2013 LaLa's, but the budget does not seem to be excited about that idea.

https://www.cellartracker.com/wine.asp?iWine=2534599

2012 Recaredo Cava Intens Rosat Brut Nature Gran Reserva

92 Points

Bought as a follow up to the first wine served us during our tour of Recaredo in January, and an object lesson in the power of setting to enhance the enjoyment of wine. That noted, the wine itself is delicious, tasting exactly as one should expect from its constituent parts and its winemaking. Monestrell, garnacha, and pinot noir, skins exposed for a few hours, 4 or so years on the lees, no dosage. So, this is proper rose (not saignee) wine from the land of taut, blisteringly fresh whites, aged as a gran reserva, and resealed undosed. Which is to say produced uncompromisingly, so it better be good. And so it is, even my kabinett-loving family admired and enjoyed this wine, both in Penedes and at home, especially with sympathetic food (last night, beef stirfry). My primary impression is of the aroma and flavors of a totally dry and very light red wine, married with the penetrating texture of GR Cava, so compared with its relatives, much more flavorful (Intens...) than most, while retaining the rigorous clarity and lightness. When we visited Recaredo had already torn out the vines and was replanting with xerello and macabeo because they feel this vineyard is too good to use for any but these most suitable Cava varieties; their future roses will be made in the the Champagne-traditional "red-wine-added" manner, and 2012 is the final vintage.
