NYE dinner with crab. A bit bracing a first but a good pairing. And probably was better when younger, but refreshing and kept wanting to refill our glasses.

Had over a dungeness crab dinner with friends and tasted side by side with the Urkizahar. This one was definitely the winner — more approachable and the acid wasn’t as strong and in your face. Wouldn’t drink this regularly or without food, but paired well with the crab and good QPR.

A few Spanish wines at Eric's: Similar to previous bottles. Very refreshing with high acid and a tiny bit of trapped gas. I should pick up a few more to have around this summer.

Quite acidic, sea breeze, lemon and ripe green apple, light and uncomplicated but true-to-type. Probably best with Pintxos in San Sebastián, not so exhilarating in the context of a dreary, wet and grey Dutch Christmas.

Light, spritzy, lemony brine. More of what I like from this style.
