  This stuff is crazy yummy. Beautiful floral and raspberry nose. Minerality overtone that carries into the mouth and provides the shape for the flavors which are amazing - bright overripe raspberry, vivid acidity, long finish. Wonderfully flavorful. Bought some originally through Vinopolis, have drank through it and now seeking more. It’s just that good. Not something that makes you think deep thoughts - it’s more of a “damn that’s great” sort of wine. Crazy.

  Really well made wine. More modern and style, fresh blue and red fruits. This is drinking great now, but should be great for the next 5-7 years. Great value

  By the glass. Sweet, aromatic with notes of thyme and rosemary mixed with a limestone undertone. Modern but balanced wine still a little warm. Years are passing and this Extremadura winery of Alvear maintains its style. The best, that recognizable name, so characteristic. Trincadeira prieta plus garnacha tintorería and syrah.
  
  Por copas. Golosa, aromática con notas de tomillo y romero con una cama caliza. Vino moderno pero equilibrado aún un poco cálido. Pasan los años y la bodega extremeña de Alvear mantiene su estilo. Lo mejor, ese reconocible nombre, tan característico. Trincadeira prieta junto a garnacha tintorería y syrah.
