2018 Bodegas Montecillo Viura Rioja Viña Monty Blanco Reserva
5/3/2024 - CondorKhan wrote: 92 Points
Leans traditional, with slightly oxidative character, apple and pear notes, and a big waxy, lanolin body balanced by nice acidity in the finish. Quite good, and a good match for everything I threw at it including Jamon Iberico, Arroz Caldoso de Gambas and even beef lasagna.

2018 Château d'Epiré Savennières

Pear, green apple, flintiness, lemony acidic finish, waxy body. I might have killed it early, because I think it needs to be a bit more together. But still, delicious with monkfish arroz caldoso.

2011 R. López de Heredia Rioja Reserva Viña Tondonia
4/2/2024 - CondorKhan wrote: 92 Points
Pours ruby with slight bricking at the edges, showing its age... Pretty much what you'd expect from a "young" Tondonia... initially a bit closed but opens up with air to reveal cherry, plums, earth, cigar soaked oak paneled basement and a juicy, acidic finish. Tannis are soft but present. As you'd expect, pairs great with serrano ham and any and all dishes that contain piquillo peppers, paprika and olive oil. Drink from now to forever.
