2007 Château Climens

Whilst not my favourite dessert wine you can’t argue with the quality.
Beautiful rich dark golden colour, very string nose of honey & marmalade which it certainly delivers for a good length in the mouth with a rich unctous coating. May not suit those who want more delicate with acid present.

Pleasant enough but not a patch on the 2010.
Very modern style. Good nose reasonable end but nothing in the middle. Certainly can do better even at this price level

2016 Viña Lobón Valdepeñas Gran Reserva

The wines of Valdepenas are not for serious drinking or contemplation IMO.
They are perfectly respectable and very well made for what they are delivering a QPR for a refreshing light wine with or without food. Serve a little on the cool side perhaps 15-16c. Just relax and enjoy.
Bouquet of damp forest floor with a gentle lift in the mouth of dark fruits. Smooth no real sign of tannins. Then again after years in large barrels before bottling it is much as one could hope for.
No need to keep just buy and consume
